Something is strange about your default Cardinals vs. Cubs game. The default teams in the PC version of the game are the Cardinals vs. the Red Sox. I also have a dedicated Windows XP PC that just has the default MVP2005 game and numerous Total Classics versions of the game installed. A few years ago, my company's IT department was giving away old Windows XP tower PCs that were sitting around gathering dust, along with Windows XP SP3 CD's. I grabbed one of the PCs and spent a total of $75 on eBay for a new mother board with an AGP graphics card slot and an Nvidia GeForce 6200 512 MB AGP graphics card. I reformatted the hard drive, installed Windows XP SP3, MVP2005 (and the patches) and the various Total Classics mods. I never connect the PC to the Internet so I don't have antivirus or any other applications installed to slow down performance. The game runs very smoothly, and using the resolution changer utility, I can play the game on a widescreen monitor. This was one of the best $75 investments I've ever made. All of my modding is done on an 16 year old Windows XP laptop.

5/10 50 seconds. Not great but considering the category, not that bad.

You're probably right. When the question asked who won the AL Cy Young award, I really had to think about it to make sure I got the correct answer.

8/10, 60 seconds. I'm happy with that score.

I had those same questions. The only one I got right as the netball question. I almost selected Ronoldo for the World Cup question but talked myself out of it.

4/10, 60 seconds. Another day, another lousy score. It's not what I need as we head toward the finish line this month.

No risk, no reward, right? 😄

It also would have been an all-time record for fastest result.

27 seconds! You guys were flying through these questions today!!

Running MVP 2005 doesn't work in Virtualized Windows XP environment
Jim825 replied to DougFromLI's topic in Support
I was wondering if you could run Ubuntu under WSL and then run the game using WINE. From what I've read, some have had luck running games that way but others have not. -
Nice job. 6/10, 62 seconds. Ouch.

When you say "I used some posts from this forum of great creators", I am assuming that you mean that you are using mods created by others in your work. Watching your video, I saw a Fox Sports overlay and a version of Fenway Park released by either SeanO or DennisJames. If you are going to use the work of others, you need to make sure you give them proper credit.

9/10, 45 seconds. I guessed correctly on a soccer AND a cricket question today! The only one I missed was a tennis question.
