nvidia + SoF demo solution

latkey
So, I've been trying to figure this out for more than 2 months now and finally Raven figured out a solution. The problem lies with the user account you are using and it's type. Any administrator account will cause problems with the SoF demo and most nvidia driver versions, including the recent release candidate.

'Turn off hard disk' on Power Options doesn't work !

Corinthian
In 'Power Options Properties' I have set the hard disk to turn off after 30 mins. After 30 mins the hard disk is not turned off. Even after a whole night of idling the hard disk is still running. Any ideas ? Windows 2000 Pro build 2195 Hard disk: IBM DPTA 372050 Motherboard: Abit BH6.

Battlezone 2 Win2K Possible fix ?

simonroockley
I've got a Geforce and have found that you get better stability if you set AGP to 1x and switch out sideband addressing and fast writes, this increases disk accessing but this can be reduced by lowering the resolution and effects.

128 Bit Encyption? Yes/No?

spacey
Hey, I'm wondering if its worth the bother to upgrade to 128 Bit Encryption? Does it slow things down a lot? I'm not really like buying junk with a credit card on the net or anything. .

Dual Monitor problem with 98 and 2K

Shad0Hawk
It's a strange problem. 98 works provided the AGP card is set to boot first in the BIOS. Windows 98 works provided that the PCI card is set to boot first in the BIOS. I really hate messing with the BIOS everytime I want to change OS.

IRQ Probs (due to ACPI?)

KB1972
I've got a new Compaq p3/500 with an internal PCMCIA adapter that I've added (for work). I use SanDisk flash disk cards, which end up being treated by Win98 as a new HD controller (on IRQ5) and as a new disk drive.
