IRC channel for the users of this forum?

Ekstreme
Would anybody be interested in an IRC channel for the users of this forum? Sometimes, the forum does get a bit slow especialy when it's an emergency and you need answers fast. So perhaps this isn't such a bad idea.

TBS Montego 1 A3D + TNT non-TV + Quake3 ?????

lunner
i am using 3. 66 TNT driver and the default audio driver. It seems Quake 3 will lock up quite a bit, but not the whole screen. A small part of the screen near the pic of the one of the players would still be redrawed, sound do come out.

Descent 3?

Beavis
I can't get Descent 3 to work with Win2000 build 2195. I have a Voodoo3 2000 video card and a PCI 128 sound card. The game starts and goes to the menu area without any probelms. When I go to start a new game the computer screen goes blank and the computer locks up.

proteus456
I cannot get homeworld to work with 2195. 3 and Creative Anihilator pro (Geforce DDR) with 3. 65 drivers. As soon as you select either D3d or Ogl drivers in setup, the game crashes to a black screen.

Need to start q3a or tribes twice to run

ToRe
I have a bizzare and annoying problem, I'm running w2k final with a voodoo2 and a matrox g200. Whenever I want to start Tribes or Q3 I have to click to start it, then nothing happens, then I need to kill the game with taskman and then run it again and it works fine.
