Anyone successful getting Force21 to run?

SnapperOne
Force21 loads and even takes you through the scenario setup; i. e. . . mission criteria, intelligence reports, etc. . . . . . , but, when we click on Go To Mission, the screen blacks-out and we're returned to the Win2000 desktop.

Wireless mouse for gaming

Tom-boy
I want to buy a cordless keyboard and a mouse and would like to get the Logitech's ones, since everybody seems to be quite enthusiastic about it. But how does the mouse behave in a game, especially in fast paced one? I've heard that cordless mice tend to lag behind badly.

Question about Splinter cell

el_vago32
OK, i'd like to know (just curiosity) if the Splinter Cell's engine (or all of the Game's engines) uses a different refresh rate that the one i have selected on the displays properties. I've actually selected a 1024X768 Res.

007 Nightfire won't start in XP

relayerman
Anyone have any suggestions other than the one EA gives you for getting 007 Nightfire running on XP w/SP1 and all the updated drivers for Creative Audigy and ATI Radeon 8500DV? I'm bummed. I get the splash screen and then a black screen for a few seconds and BAM! back to the desktop.

Baldur's Gate (TotSC) problems under Windows 2000 SP3

HN
Hei everybody I simply can't get Baldur's Gate to run properly under Windows 2000. The game is running very jerky like my machine is to slow for game. When I click at a point where I would like my characters to go it seems like they are jumping to that place.
