Sorry about the double topic, but I thought it belonged in both.
Thats right! If you own a Nvidia product, you will get the following games FOR FREE:
-Half-Life 2 DeathMatch
-Half-Life 2: The Lost Coast
-Peggle Extreme
-Portal: The First Slice

These games are distributed by Steam, so that means you need a Steam account to get them. (For those who dont know, Steam accounts are free)

If you own a Nvidia product(which is probably why you are here), then go to this page.



None.

HL2 DM and LC are both free, and Portal is just a demo. Peggle is an arcade game. What a deal from Nvidia.

NudeRaider -- *still see

NudeRaider -- Also I like how someone quoted you a few posts down and there you can still your old username.
[04:18 am]
NudeRaider -- Neither did I. ;) I tried to link a Blizzard source but I think they eventually took it down for some reason, so I was happy to find it here. :)

NudeRaider shouted: DarkenedFantasies yeah, that much is obvious, but I can only check if that's actualy the case (and not just the size rounded down) if I download the file.
didn't expect to see a post from myself years ago actually being helpful https://staredit.net/topic/18852/#2 :lol:

DarkenedFantasies shouted: As for the 0 bytes zip, you just rename the file extension of any 0-byte file to zip. I however had to make it 1 byte because SEN throws an error when uploading a 0 bytes file.

NudeRaider -- Oh and that's on Win 10 as well, but a IoT Enterprise LTSC edition which (I think?) misses the latest feature upgrades, despite being current on security updates.

NudeRaider -- DarkenedFantasies
DarkenedFantasies shouted: On Win10, when I right-click > New > Compressed Folder, I get the 22B file that I had. This is only the EOCD header, with the magic number 0x06054B50 and the remaining 18 bytes are null.
oof, so much to unpack for such a seemingly insignificant topic. Firstly I tried with 7zip. Choosing the default right click > 7zip > Send to "filename.zip" on an empty file creates a 156 Bytes .zip. 82 Bytes I only get via custom options. Secondly I don't have > New > Compressed folder, I have Send To > Compressed (zipped) Folder. When I do that Windows refuses to create it because it's empty. If I do it on a 0 Byte file the resulting zip is 140 Bytes. Under rightclick -> new (on the empty area of a folder) I can only create a (regular) folder and several file types like text, spreadsheet, image etc. but not zip.
