Unreal Tournament and RAM

Galilee
Hi. I have installed win2k many times but allways gone back to win98 due to the lack of drivers for some of my hardware. The thing I have been pleased with is the performance in UT in D3D on a GeForce.

By pressing two keys at once (eg. 'run' + 'jump'), one of them will get stuck until being pressed again. Accessability options have been uninstalled. does this problem occur in other games as well, and is there a solution? greets, tobe (^^.

Jane's F/A-18 patching for WIN 2K

cablehog
I have noticed in the Compatibility section for games that someone has been able to install F/A 18 in WIN 2K by copying the apcompat file off of the WIN 2K CD into a temp directory on his hard drive.

Toca2 in Win2k

thefej
I recently installed Toca2 on my win2k box. I have an ATI Rage 128. When I start Toca2 up it does not run fully. First there was a problem with the menu reverting back to the setup menu, but this was fixed by editing the registry.
