Descent3 crashes with win 2k

The game loads fine and the keyboard is detected but after you go through the menus and start a game it freezes before any gameplay can occur but shows all the movie clips. I have directx 7. 0 installed and I have dual 550s 128 megs of ram and a tnt2 ultra video card.

couple more game questions

Save yourself the trouble.

Impala SS
For those that are experiencing trouble with games and Win NT. Do yourself a favor and install Win 9x, the games will work, Direct X will work, and finally all your problems will 'disappear'. I'm sure you will be able live w/o the extra processor.

RC3 / q3ademo / Nvidia 128ZX

LooseSluse
Has anybody had luck with Win2k, q3Ademo and nvidia 128zx (Diamond Stealth v330) video cards? I can't get opengl to start and as a result q3 fails to start. 128zx is supported as a opengl card under quake, but nvidia doesn't seem to have any drivers? Any help is appreciated.

WIN2K and internal fan....

MuD
I was wondering. . . When I boot up to win2k 2195, my fan that cools my processor and powerbox suddenly stops. It will occasionally start back up ever so often for about 1-2 minutes and then goes back off again.

2 Questions: ACPI and AGP

EoRaptor
Just 2 quick questions. I installed 2195. 1, but it doesn't seem to have used my ACPI bios, instead falling back on my PnP bios. Is there anythign I had to do during setup to enable it? (Under 98 you have to use a command line switch) ACPI works fine for me under 98SE on my BH6.

Win2k and Audio programs

PreAmp
Hey, Ever since I installed LiveWare3 I've been having problems with my music programs. Programs such as FruityLoop2 now have very skippy playback or won't playback at all. Reaktor also has the same problem.

SideNote: Concerning W2K vs 98 in gaming... I got some quest

JimmyK
I havent used 9x since 1996, so I have nothing to compare it with. But Iv read a couple of reviews and articles saying that win98 is yielding about 10-15 percent higher framerates compared to win2k. They had a number of games benchmarks to prove it as well on equivalent systems.
