Windows port of Flurry screensaver


Recommended Posts

Had a look at it, all the presets seem the same to me, plus its sort of un-interesting ... I thing I will stick to Sachs Aquarium 2 ... Gotta love those fish :) ... very peaceful

If you're using Windows XP (2000 may do this too), then you are getting BSOD errors whilst the "automatically restart with BSODs" option is enabled lol. I can't remember how to disable it, sorry

I had one of the original versions of this screesaver installed a few months ago. It seemed to work fine. Perhaps it is a problem with Nvidia's latest driver revision? It is a OpenGL screensaver right?

i had the same problem with the screensaver not working or going really slow... just update ur video card drivers.

Hey, thanks man. I never wanted to update to the detanator drivers because it screwed up my screen width and height. But it solved the slow problem, and the width and height problem didn't happen.

Hey, everyone try this out with vital desktop: http://www.vital-desktop.com/download.php

Runs great as my background and doesn't even touch the processor. Plus, the fade away effect makes it *really* cool :D

Drempels is cool too

That's pretty neat, but it's waaay too distracting

This screen saver will run extremely slow on your PC if your gfx card driver does not have hardware support for Open GL. That is what I liked about my Nvidia card when I had my PC, it had great Open GL support.

I don't know what that one guy was talking about because this screen saver runs smooth on my 12" pbook and my eMac.

I tried this screensaver at work on a P4 2.4 Ghz machine and it gave me about 3 fps. :p It only has onboard Intel chipset video.

    • Most AI-powered mainframe migration vendors expected to fail by 2030, Gartner warns by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels You may have read that many companies still run code written in ancient programming languages like COBOL and pay a handsome sum for those who can maintain that code. Well, it looks like this area of the tech world could be the scene of an AI bubble. It turns out that there are mainframe exit vendors, helping companies move their legacy mainframe systems to modern cloud environments or servers such as Microsoft Azure and AWS, using generative AI tooling. Unfortunately, 75% of these vendors are now expected to pivot or cease operations as market realities take hold by 2030. Alessandro Galimberti from Gartner said: Some of the companies in the mainframe exit market are IBM, 21CS, BMC, Broadcom, Rocket Software, DXC, GTSG, and Kyndryl. The reasons some of these firms are expected to quit the market are a reset of market expectations and a decline in demand for one-size-fits-all migration solutions. The reset in expectations is likely to be driven by cost overruns and threats to business, and the potential occurrence of critical failures within businesses as a result of bad transition implementations. These insights from Gartner are pretty interesting because it’s a specific area of the market where doubt is being cast on generative AI. Many people have cast doubt on whether AI companies will successfully justify the massive amounts spent on GenAI to date, and this data from Gartner suggests the road could be rocky for GenAI.

    • If you have the budget...! Some solo or indies just want to either learn or start their game and aren't in a capacity to pay salaries or to contractors... Get real.
