Rogue spear problems

caym

Ok I just got win2k the other day loaded it up updated drivers patches, etc. Then i tried to load rogue spear and run it. I get the missing eax. dll message and my system reboots itself. I have installed the 205 patch as instructed, but to no avail.

Web Site Hosting

bkehoe

Hi, I've got a computer running Windows 2000 in a school, and it's got 5 IP addresses on the web. I was wondering if someone could give me instructions or a link on how to configure win2k to be a primary and secondary dns server and how to host web sites (domains) on the remaining IP addresses.

Overclocking GeForce - for what?

Preacher

A question I always wanted to ask (when I was not online ) is what you get in the term of FPS increase by overclocking your GeForce DDR. I remember having read an article saying benefits would be nearly unnoticeable.

DHCP client in Windows 2000

piper

The DHCP client in Windows 2000 seems to be not working properly. I have both Windows 98 and Windows 2000 installed on the same machine, but Windows 2000 simply refuses to grab the IP address from my ISP.

FreeSpeed athalon over clocker!

Arin

Has anyone bought and use that freespeed daughter board that goes on the athalon chip for overclocking? my question to you guys is, was it worth it? did it rise the temp of the athalon to much? and were a lot of fans needed to help cool more? How far did you get your mhz up to.

SB Liveware install question

Buckeye

Ok. . . I installed CL's beta SB Live drivers for Win2k. They work fine but I'd like to install the official drivers now that they are out. Problem is is that there is no uninstall with the beta drivers.

TNT2 and 5.13

Andersony

Is it just the 5. 13 drivers on my TNT2U, or am I just forgetting something. When I use PowerDVD 2. 55, I can't keep the window playing the movie up front (always on top). I don't remember having this problem in earlier NVidia drivers.

NVidia drivers and Monitor powerdown

Ryo-Ohki

I recently redid my installation of Win2k Pro, and when I installed my NVidia drivers, I lost the ability to choose my monitor type, and as a result, it will not power down. Is there any way other than a 3rd-party program (which I've tried and didnt work) to get this to work correctly?.

I have an old monitor that runs very dark. I can correct this in WIN98. In the advanced section of the display settings gamma and brightness can be changed for a TNT. Do any of the new TNT drivers support this option in WIN2000?.
