MDK 2: Stuck mid-game twice so far

nwnz

Effectively FPS goes down to 0. 2. Happened once at level 3 after the professor got the atomic toaster and into the elevator. Had to use cheat to skip level. Level 4 it happened again after the alien stage show.

Advice from Win2K vets, please

riordan

I really want to move to Win2K at home, but being an Intel flunky at work(you know how that is), I am loathe to 'try' it on my Athlon. I have heard the horror stories associated with KT133 and Win2K.

Whistler Registration

Phasis

As you are all probably aware, whislter has an inbuilt copy protection which requires it to be registered with MS. I know there are ways around this rather annoying process, but will it cause my install to cease to work? The fix i found requires an alteration to the RegDone key in the registry.
