GomJabbar
Hi there, was someone of you able to get Crusader: No Regret or Crusader: No Remorse running under Win2k? I've tried everything I could come up with but wasn't that successful up to now. It always throws the following error at me when trying to start it: Fatal Error 286.

Nvidia 40.72 & Games

javajeff
I tried the Nvidia 40. 72 with Links 2003. After installing the Nvidia 40. 72, Links 2003 ran fast. . . however, I started to get some video glitches. The glitches seems to occur when changes were made on the screen.

Battlefield 1942

dave.green1
Is the single player value any good? I wan't to play this game, but I HATE, DESPISE, LOATHE online playing. There are to many jackasses out there for it to stay fun. Should I bother or stick with MoH:AA (and Spearhead for the matter)?.

Need For Speed 6: Hot Pursuit 2

pmistry
Anyone looking forward to the Need For Speed title, I know I am, I just hope that the PC version will be similar in terms of features to the Playstation 2 version. Oh by the way EA, I hope you make it run properly under Windows 2000, unlike Porsche Unleashed and High Stakes.

AvP2 flickers like mad

Tom-boy
I just strated to play AvP2 for the first time and the graphics are absolutely horrible. From the briefing cut-scenes onwards the display is filled with various kinds of 'geometrical' (for lack of better word) patterns, mostly seem to be triangulars,flashing, changing and giving me a headache.

For those of you who have ff7 working in xp

Doomgaze53
How did you do it? I just did a fresh format (ntfs) and a clean install of xp. Soon as it was up, I installed ff7 and tried it, didn't work. Set compatibility to win98, didn't work. So then I installed newest dx8.
