Gemfire James

ok, this sucks. Relisys has no Windows 2000 drivers on their site and I was wondering if anybody knew where I could get some drivers, hacked or not or if there is a resolve for this issue, cuz not only can I not use it in 2000, I can't use it in XP either.

My DVD not detected by bios, but... ?

Ant -|- One

I don't know why, but my DVD drive is no more detected (take a look at my specs below) by bios at start-up. . . But the funny thing is that the DVD drive is real present and working great under Win2kPro.

TrainSim

AndyFair

I've been trying to get TrainSim to work for the last couple of days, and everything works fine, apart from the sound - the speech in the intro rides is echoing, and general sound throughout the game keeps stuttering and clicking, and slows the game down.

Why does system reboot?

SnapperOne

Installed Win2000-Pro several weeks ago as a complete install, not an install over Win98SE. Have come across something I don't understand. I have the monitor set to go-to-sleep after 30 minutes of inactivity, but leave the PC and hard drive alone.
