PS2Rate or USB?

pete
I'd love to run Q3test in SMP mode under NT, but 1-win2k isn't gonna work with smp q3 (crashes). ? = Is there any Ps2rate program, or way to get my USB mouse working? the standard ps2 frequency is too low and those frames/sec I get are wasted on crappy mouse port polling.

After reading about this beta directx5 for NT, I'm wondering if Quake3 will run better or run at all on my pc. I have a Dual 366@605 setup and a TNT2 ultra running nvidia's reference drivers. Any help is appreciated.

C-Dilla copyprotection

Rune Moberg
I've been buying quite a lot of games recently, and I can't help notice that the ones with copyprotection are the ones that has caused me the most trouble. . . (seems strange paying for a thing, and then it won't work because it thinks you've pirated it.

Blackmagic
It says that Tiberian Sun works under 2000 but for some reason it just shows a white screen and it like freezes, but I can hear the sound. I have a voodoo2 video card but my main card is a riva 128. .

Flight Sim98?

bkehoe
Hi, I have Windows NT5 Beta 2, which I am told comes with DirectX6/hardware acelleration. Unfortunatly Flight Sim98 complains about the system being NT, with no hardware acelleration available. I don't have Win2K as I figure why waste money when it'll be out in a few months.

Descent3 & G400

ezap
Installed a new G400 dualhead card and Descent 3. Runs soooooo slowly that it is unusable. Downloaded the D3 demo 2. It installs. On the setup page, the DirectX tab shows that DirectX version is 3. 0, on the video tab no rendering device is listed.

ATI Rage Pro

Tony
does anyone have any hacked, or beta (if any yet) icd drivers for windows 2000, for an ATI XPert 98 (rage pro chip). NT 4. 0 drivers do not install at all, even the inf installer is dead. i need better drivers for games, the direct3d under win2k is extreamy slow, and there is no opengl to speak of.

tenkei
Okay, so i got lucky enough to be chosen for Asheron's Call beta testing, phase2. . . I'm running Win2000 (RC1) and own a Millenium G200 board. The problem is that whenever i try to setup 3D acceleration for AC i get a message saying that 'This system doesn't have 3d capabilities'.
