Microsoft Games don't work?

This is a discussion about Microsoft Games don't work? in the Windows Games category; I have NBA inside drive 2000 and NFL Fever 2000 and I can't get either of them to work under the 2128 build. I have a Voodoo3 2000 PCI card and have downloaded the newest drivers I could find. In basketball the game starts ok and then when I get to the actual gameplay the screen starts flashing like crazy.

In basketball the game starts ok and then when I get to the actual gameplay the screen starts flashing like crazy. In the options menu I only have the choice of software mode or D3D mode also. I have tried both modes and neither one works.
 
If anybody else spent $20.00 on these games and got them to run please let me know how.
 
BTW Quake2, Unreal, and Drakan run smooth as silk BABY!!

Still no luck here. I think my Xitel Storm Platnium (another Vortex 2 sound card like a Diamond MX300) is really causing all the trouble. Games look like they are going to start, but just stop without any errors or screens coming up. And while I tried up[censored] DirectX 7 last night, it didn't seem to help at all.
 
I guess I need a SB Live for my Dual CPU machine, as many are just having headaches trying to get the Vortex 2 chipset running in Windows 2000.

I still can't get NFL Fever 2000 to work correctly. I think you are right on track with the sound card problem. I have a Sound Blaster PCI 128 and the game starts out ok (but without sound) and then it dies.
 
NBA Inside Drive runs great though.
