The # is on the readme click help & put it in.

Hi, phlan, sorry to hear about your problem. There can have been a lot of mistakes which killed your registration: it was not activated correctly from the beginning, you tried to update it, or one of the other utilities you are using has deleted parts of the program...When you like this program so much, then you may consider to buy it, or just wait until the next re-run at GOTD. When you read this thread, you'll find some proposals for other tools - or: Google is your friend.

Thanks so much for your help tiredoftry, it's nice to see their are still helpful people around the internet. Have a great week.

dhama - I had the same problem and resolved it using DOSBox. It is pretty much a must to run the DOS games on newer systems. You can get it at DOSBox.com. The quick of it is to 'mount' the folder(s) with the game(s). I place all my games I am running with DOSBox in a folder at c:\dGames. In DOSBox, enter 'mount g c:\dGames'. You will now have a virtual drive G (you can use any letter you wish) to run the games. In the case of Chasm, change to it's directory after doing the mount and enter Chasm to start the game.

Wow I remember Chasm, it came out around the time Quake was changing the lay of 3d shooter land so Chasm was dead on arrival, but the graphics were gorgeous and the gameplay was oldskool fun. Thanks for making it available.

Having problems running Chasm: The Rift. Game runs ok when the two guys are giving instruction, but if you press the escape key, or wait till they have finished and press the space to continue it crashes back to desktop. I have tried it in all combinations of campatability modes.
Any ideas here?

Thanks, Wrabbit... planning to give these both a try.

I thought two alien/monster orientated games would be good for today. The first one is a side scrolling platform game released about 1993 and the second is a Doom/Quake/Hexen clone released in the mid 90’s. Graphics as you would expect are a little dated, but both are still very playable games. Alien Carnage a ‘Halloween Harry’ title plays fine on XP with SP3 though you will require DOSBox for the second game, Chasm: The Rift.

Alien Carnage: (2.45Mb)

Is Halloween Harry the only person left on Earth who can save humanity from being transformed into zombified slaves? Yup. And, as luck would have it, you're Halloween Harry. The invasion is centered in New York City, where a space ship has burrowed its way under a skyscraper. With weapons of mass destruction to back you up, you'll try to blow away each and every alien in order to get to the mother ship and save the planet. Various missions and three levels of play give Alien Carnage high replay value.

Many of the games key aspects can be seen as quite tame by today’s standards – the violence for one. Flaming a zombie who simply turns white when injured then disintegrates isn’t as thrilling as it was fifteen years ago. The game’s simple platforming can also seem primitive at times, also.

There is lots to like about this title, even beyond nostalgia value. For example, in between rescuing beautiful women, spot the mysterious Elvis characters you have to rescue some times. The enemies are often varied – take the blob one which squelches across the ceilings. The weapons are varied and include the standard flame thrower, heat seeking rockets and the almighty Omega. All of which are purchasable via vending machines – which you can afford to use by blowing away enemies who drop loose change (I can’t wait for the future).

Its simple fun, it’s pretty long (spanning four chapters with multiple levels in each) I for one, will continue to return to Harry and his alien shredding ways over and over again. Now that it’s free.

Chasm: The Rift: (17.3Mb)

Despite the weird visuals as you move your mouse around, it's quite a unique gem when you compare it among duke nukem 3d or doom. Well forget those two, this one is great by a long shot, extremely similar to quake, hexen, or heretic, but it's got a smoother look to it, and much more blood that's not for your little brother to see, but it's the thought that counts. The game might seem kind of repetitive near the end, but surprisingly it has great replay value.

The Story

Feeling you are no longer alone, you turn, with just enough time to shoot, killing the mutation charging mercilessly toward you.
You begin to sense an eerie feeling of fear in the air, but your skin crawls as you realize it's your own...What was that thing?
Again and again you shoot, battling more strange beasts; all grotesque mutations of creatures you once knew. Suddenly the inexplicable becomes clear. Time channels have formed in the Earth's atmosphere, turning once normal life forms into something they were never meant to be. As part of a special commando unit, you must not only ward off and eradicate the beasts, but destroy the time channels to finally rid the Earth of these deadly mutations.

Game features:

16 Missions in 4 Episodes
Episode 1: Condemnation
Episode 2: In Search of Inception
Episode 3: The Shadow ZONE
Episode 4: Stronghold of Evil

Plus 6 Deathmatch levels

20 death-seeking monsters

I haven't looked for any Vista utilities but I'm sure there must be Vista support available.

I still cannot believe how many few system tools support Windows Vista 64-bit. I know Advanced System Care does and I think Tuneup Ulities do too but other than that there are not many. Symantec has released Norton Utilities and I think that supports Windows Vista 64-bit, but other than that there are not many that I know of.

You might want to give this a try. Advanced SystemCare Free v3 Portable Edition.

I've been using Iobit smart defrag with very good results for a long time but I wasn't aware that Advanced SystemCare was available in portable format until now.

The GUI might take some getting used to after using WinUtilities, however this is an exceptional program and worth the effort. It also has registry defragmentation which is always a good thing to run after cleaning. You can pick it up here.

Trisha,

Iv'e been using WinUtilities for some time now with no problems.

One thing I noticed about the program is the similarity to Glary Utilities. If you are used to WinUtilities GUI then you'll be familliar with Glary's.
Glary Utilities is slightly more powerfull and includes a registry defragmenter, something WinUtilities is lacking.

Glary has a Portable version available for system administrators and advanced users that isn't generally known.
Look halfway down this page and find the zip download.

http://www.glaryutilities.com/builds.html

Revo Uninstaller also offers a free portable version of their popular uninstaller. Again, Look halfway down the page and find the zip download which includes files missing from the self extracting exe.

http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html

Download and extract the ZIP files to a folder and copy that folder to a USB Mass storage drive. You can run revouninstaller.exe and GlaryUtilitiesPortable.exe from the USB without installation! These are must have utilities for anyone that installs and uninstalls frequently.

This is probably because you tried to upgrade from 6.2 -> 6.4. 6.2 is the version that was free here.

You can either wait until WinUtilties comes back around (which it most likely will) or you can get:

TuneUp Utilities 2007
WinOptimizer 5
Desktop Maestro 2

All three programs are available for free.

I downloaded this software from your site FREE on 10/30/08, and now it tells me to do a 30 free trial and purchase the program. I am confused as this was working perfectly from Oct 2008 till now. Is there a registration key or something that you can send me?
Kind regards,
Trisha Alen
