Grim Fandango

ejsmith
Trying to get Grim Fandango to work. It will play for about 2 minutes or 6 scene changes before it kicks me out to the desktop. I've tried everything from ACT, to APcompat, Win95 compatible layer, running it plain with SP2 integrated, running the executable directly from the folder.

I was just wondering where the 'blue color' so special to win2K (and winMe) lies within Win2k? Because I'm unable to set it back. . . Thanx for any hint, I would appreciate it much !.

Hard-drive thrashing!!

jwl812
Checking to see if anyone else is experiencing hard-drive thrashing for about 5 seconds after WinXP 2600 boots up and comes up to the desktop. It appears XP is either looking for something or is completing some kind of task after the desktop comes up.

XP vs 2k Game Performance

pmistry
I wanted to know if you guys are getting pretty much the same performance in games with both OSes. List off some games, and tell me your RAM, CPU, Sound, and Video Card combination. How many of you get better performance in XP? Less performance? or Identical? I get worse.
