Red Baron 3d no sound (Win XP)

michael1952

Red Baron 3D plays sound after installation, but after restart sound is deleted. I have a mainbord with VIA kt 266 chip and sound onboard. Newest drivers are installed, but doesn't solve the problem.

Installed XP and lost my ME Boot

2drunk2funk

I have (For the 2nd time) Installed XP Pro When I did this first time around (When it was released) it recognised my existing ME boot and automatically created a multi boot config on startup. I lost that XP install when I changed Mobo (BSOD on boot) and never bothered installing again till now.

Age of Empires Gold and Windows 2000

ET

I recently bought Age of Empires Gold. Thought it was a nice classic, and I should try it. The box listed a whole slew of Windows versions, including NT and XP, and while Win2K wasn't mentioned, I was kind of hoping.

Windows XP / 98SE dual boot..need help

gilgamesh

I currently have only Windows XP installed on my system. However, I recently found an old 2 GB hard drive and put it in my computer. I would like to put Windows 98 SE on this second drive. I tried formatting the second drive to FAT32, then copying all the setup files from the WIn98 cd to the same drive.

ATI Radeon 9800 (R350) - Thoughts and opinions?

Mr.Guvernment

I have read some reviews on the card - and to me - it just seems like a GAP / time filler until their release their R400 cards. . . nothing overly impressive, but still a nice looking card. Supposedly the 256mb version will be called the 9900.

Pcanywhere

fatattack

I regularly use Pcanywhere to do some remote administration. Although I know that some alternatives will work under XP I am not so sure about Pcanywhere though. I am using v 9. 2 (windows 2k compatible version) If anyone has tried it on XP please let me know the results.

Suckness of cloth mouse pads

mezron

Quote:I'll be looking at something a bit different today, a cloth mouse pad. Yes, cloth. While I'm literally against cloth pads myself, for obvious reasons Ok, I looked at this review and it's apparently obvious (to everyone but me) that cloth mouse pads suck.

Outlook XP JunkMail/AdultMail lists: How to undo?

Bursar

It might be easier in the long run to setup an extra folder in Outlook, and have the rule move all spam emails into that. You can then have a quick scan through it, move out any you want to keep, and then trash the rest.

Abacus vs. Difference Engine - which OS do you prefer

felix

I've decided to post an OS preference thread for this week. The Abacus: I find the simplified UI and native accessability options to be far easier to manipulate than cogs and wheels. Whilst the functions are limited to the basic arithmetic, the speed of calculation and global support for this OS help determine its ...

No Repair disk, can't find Win2k install dir

mthaler

I am trying to fix a machine, it seems to start to boot fine, but then flashes a blue screen so quickly, you can't read it and it reboots. I boot with a WIN2K boot disk, it can't find the installation directory so repair fails.
