Ultima 9 probs

This is a discussion about Ultima 9 probs in the Windows Hardware category; I just installed Ultima 9 on Windows 2000 final and it starts up, displays a loading screen, screen goes black, flickers, and im back at the desktop. I was having the exact same problem under Windows Millenium and I had no sound card drivers installed, I installed them and now the game runs great in WinME.

I just installed Ultima 9 on Windows 2000 final and it starts up, displays a loading screen, screen goes black, flickers, and im back at the desktop.
 
I was having the exact same problem under Windows Millenium and I had no sound card drivers installed, I installed them and now the game runs great in WinME.
 
I just downloaded the new SBlive drivers (I have the Creative SBLive Value) and installed them and still Ultima 9 won't run in Win2k.
 
I think the problem is my soundcard but I don't really know.
 
Any help is appreciated,

I have G400 Max and everything looks and works great (Matrox image quality does rock) and I don't even have problems at all with Diablo 2 D3D, good WHQL drivers they have. Wait for the G450 and the G800
