I have been spending this year mostly on reading and doing other useless garbage between an increased load of work. Even though it slowed down, I still was reading. It is about time I play a game. Just getting the game puts smiles on my face (already got it, it was not far from my house at all).

XD, I hope not. I don't see any psychos with guns saying I need to do such, so I feel I am safe at this time :P.

I am waiting for setup.exe to start... Raadec, did it take a long time for the setup to start? It seems to be running according to Task Manager, and some sites say it takes about an hour on newer systems. I also am aware of having to fix my processors to just one. Raadec, when this installation starts (with the NT skip, you never mentioned it but I assume you had to do such as I remember doing it on my XP), I will be coming for you!

EDIT: It's alive! I got the processors set to 1, found my DromEd to be in working condition, and the video bug should be fixed. It is much easier installing Thief than it was 8 years ago, even though I feared I would have to use a third party patch. I wanted vanilla badly so it is good to have it as pure as possible.

Playing the game so far is as good as I remembered it. Everything is so counter intuitive! When I used to play it, I used the arrow keys and was not acquainted with AWSD. Now I find W and S both move forward, and X moves back! I understand its purpose, just makes it different. Plus, I natuarally drift to the turn keys in an attempt to strafe. Still, already some of my growing pains are gone and I am getting back into the game!
