poor lan performance

LM
Has anyone else experienced really bad performance between Win2k and Win98? I have a Umax 110TX which Windows detects as Winbond W89C840-based PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter. . . I assume it's a driver issue because I didn't notice anything when using 98, but updated drivers from Umax didn't help.

Arrrgggghhhhh.... Liveware and MP3 problem

evil Homer
Okay, I installed the Liveware release and the drivers, all works fine. Usually I have Winamp (2. 60) running in the background while I surf the web. Most of the time when a wav sound plays like in Windows or from ICQ, the MP3 starts jumping, then returns to normal.

How to choke Win2k - BP6 and QQ bios? Please help!

ragefire
Ok, this may have been just my installation being corrupted, but here's the problem I ran into. I was running packaged BIOS for Abit BP6 and Win2k just fine - no snags, except on shutdown I'd have to hold in the power button since ACPI wasn't enabled.

Bug in dialup connection?

jjaaskel
Is there bug in win2k's dialup connection? Make a new connection (or edit old connection) and then choose dial-up connection properties-security and check that there is X in show terminal window. After that start IE5 and that ask you to start dialup connection, let IE call after while server will answer and connect ...

That Pinball Game that Comes with NT/W2K

sheared
My wife loves that pinball game, and she wants to play it on her Win98 laptop. I've looked around for some way to install it on there, but eventually just copied the Pinball directory to her computer.

Unable to read CD-rom when playing AOE2 and C&C2

LooseSluse
This is wierd. AOE2 and C&C2 can run under win2k. I can install both no prob, but when I want to play, they don't detect the game in the CD-rom. I have tried this on two different computers each with different cd-roms running the same build of win2k.

Performance with nVidia's new Win2000 drivers?

Leo V
nVidia just released optimized W2K drivers, Version 3. 78 on their website. However, as we all know, nVidia's beta Win2000 drivers were way slower than Win98. If you installed the new drivers, how was your performance? (In Direct3D and in OpenGL/Quake3)? thanks! I can't wait to migrate to W2K, but the slow drivers ...
