Grand Prix Legends

p935

I keep on having problems with sound of Grand Prix Legends under Windows XP: I abandoned Windows 2000 because of graphic problems and I had this new one. The problem is limited to GPL though: I have awful distortion inside the game (but strangely not during replay).

I can get the game to run fine under XP (using the Win 2000 switch) but even though I can choose resoloutions and colour depth in the games menu, this does not ...

Discworld 2, SVGA and mouse problem

36 degrees

I try to run Discworld 2 on WinNT, but there's this problem: the mouse is stuck in the upper half of the screen and i can't reach anything in the bottom half. There's no such problem with other DOS games, so i thought it might be because of the SuperVGA.

Hi, I'm running XP Home and have set up limited user accounts for others in the household. Given many prior rebuilds/repairs needed by allowing access to admin privs, I do not want to turn on privs for these accounts.

Performance degrading over time in GTA 3

Curley_Boy

I have a problem with GTA 3. . . after it's been running for about an hour or so it starts to get really slow and jerky (HDD gets accessed alot). Before I start it I always close down all progs/background & taskbar apps and non essential services etc and defrag the HD.

Every single person who reads this must go and play Battlefield 1942. Even though it's only the demo that's out, it is the best game I think I have ever played. The teamplay element, the graphics, sounds, and not to mention all the kool crap you can play with in the game.
