GeForce's conflict with Win2k & AMD

Chipmunk
When I converted from Win 98 to Win 2k, I experienced a major problem when running direct3d or opengl games or applications. For example, when I run 3d Mark 2000, sometimes half way through the testing, a blue screen of death will appear, with an error message: ***STOP:0x0000001E (0xc0000005, 0xBCA6E379, 0x00000000 ...

SP1

yakkob
Just wondering what the general concensus of SP1 is with you lot. I dl'ed it when it first came out, but I read a lot of bad reports. Now, I feel the time has come for me to install it. From your experiences, is it best to install it straight away afetr an install, or is it ok just to install it over what you have.

One of the features I'm looking forward to (but I'm sure Adaptec isn't) is built in support for CDR/RW in Whistler. The vision is as follows, and I quote the coveted Beta 1 feature guide: enables users to save information to a CD.

I just obtained this card and installed it under Win2k. The driver installation went fine (the 3rd time through) and DVD Station installed as well. But, when I try to output an mpeg to the TV, my TV just displays crazy colors.

Setting DMA for drives in W2K

PsychoSword
I am new to Windows 2000 and I am hoping someone in this forum can tell me how you turn DMA on for CD-ROM Drives and Hard Drives in Windows 2000. I checked in device manager, but there doesn't seem to be the option like in Windows 9X.
