Need for Speed Special Edition

Kelter
I have installed this DOS version of the game by booting Windows 98 start-up boot disk with CD-ROM support mode and installed the game without problem. Then I try to run in on Win XP but it does not start and compatible modes causes it same result.

Just upgraded to win 2k and found my 3dfx vid drivers didnt work. Got the correct one from here and installed them. Now when I join a game it is so dark that I can barely see anything even with the gamma turned all of the way up.

Help with DOS Games Under XP - Sound

CKTurbo128
For some reason, I can't get DOS games like Master of Orion to run with sound. Previously, before I upgraded to XP, all the DOS games I had were able to run with sound under ME. I have a Sound Blaster Audigy Gamer sound card.

Mouse Lag in XP

kingtrey
well i'm glad to know that i'm not insane and i'm not the only one who notices that the mouse movement in WinXP is COMPLETELY PHUCKED UP compared to Win98 & Win2k. i've noticed some people posting stuff that they claim will fix the problem, but it never says if anything actually works.

Mouse Acceleration in UT!?!?

bilston
I don't know about you, but this XP mouse accel thing is getting on my nerves just a tad. I've got the latency patch, but its quite obvious that Mouse Acceleration is enabled when running UT. Is there anyway I can tell UT to disable Mouse Acceleration? Thanks.
