Real Player 7 and TNT

Apoptosis

I have had problems with Real Player 7 for a long time now. Basicly what happens is that when I am playing some movies it puts my monitor in hybernate mode and I can't recover. It has done this since Real Player was in beta.

Battlezone II and Grand Theft Auto 2

Apocalypse

Grand Theft Auto 2 and Battlezone II are both giving me the same error on startup where no suitable video card can be found. After clicking OK at this message both games simply exit and do not start.

Nvidia's TNT2 Detonator Drivers

Apocalypse

Does anyone know if any versions of the TNT2 Detonator drivers pass the dxdiag D3D test?? Mine says Failure on Step 18. If you don't know how to test yours, go to start->run and type dxdiag and hit enter.

Rogue Spear in Windows 2000

Apocalypse

Has anyone had any luck with Rogue Spear in Windows 2000 with a TNT2??? The game forces software mode, thereby messing up all the colors and totally eliminating the transparecy effect for all objects.

V3/W2K- SMP/Q3A/ - What the hell am I doing wrong???

Stain_Maker

I have been trying unsuccessfully to get Q3A to run with R_SMP 1 under W2K and have been failing miserably. Even time it seems to load, then I get a gray screen with the cursor being an hour glass. I've installed the latest V3 drivers and Q3 point release with no help.

Pure3D

Wierd distorted sound problem in Q3A!?!??! Just bought me a fresh copy of Q3A. The sound is messed up. It's like a loud humming vibrating noise. When I walk around in the game, it gets worse. When I fire, it gets worse too.

3C450 Win2K compatibility?

CraigBurton

On the compatibility list it says the NIC 3C450 is not compatible with Win2k. Does this mean it will never be compatible? Or do I have to wait for 3com to release new drivers?.

Hi, I'd like to know if it's possible to change the drive letter for CDROM (even hard drive)? I can do it with NT 4. 0 by running the Disk Admin (I think the name is right), but I can't find a similar utility in NT 2000.
