Thief on Win NT

Dozer
Is this a Win 2000 message board only or are there any NT users out there? I've just bought Thief Gold for my PC, and then realised that it won't run! It comes up with my the directx graphic drivers not being able to run.

mozzer
Can anyone advise me as to the best configuration for UT with a G400Max under NT4? I have 192Mb RAM, SP5, plenty of hard disk, 4. 13patch on UT, latest drivers from Matrox. D3D and OpenGL both seem choppy to me.

Directx Graphic Drivers

Dozer
Can anyone help, or am I pissing in the wind. I've just bought a couple of games for my PC, but I am running Windows NT and these games required DirectX software to run them.

video cards

Brian Schneider
Hi, I'm using a voodoo3 on win2k, but am unimpressed. The voodoo3 performs the same as my Banshee does. So I was planning on getting a TNT2 ultra, and am just wondering if I can expect significant improvement.

Family Game Pack Royale

supplystud
3DO makes a game called Family Game Pack Royale. It is designed for Win 95/98. I am sure that it would run under W2K. It is designed to spot the NTKERNEL file and not install. I have contacted 3DO and they do not seem interested in helping.

Getting 4 Speakers w/SB-Live & win2k?

Jester
My friend has a SB-Live Value running Win2k prof. He just got some brand spankin' new Klipsch Promedia v. 400s and can only get 2 speaker support. Are there any drivers out for the Live that give it 4 speaker support? I checked Creative's website and nothing is listed under 2000 drivers or beta drivers.
