Games too fast in Win2K

Mr Furious
How come all games (Half Life, Midtown Madness, Close Combat IV) run too fast under Windows 2000? I still get the same frame rate on time demos in Half-Life, but it's just too fast to play! I've only got a K6-III 450, Voodoo 3 3000 and 128MB, not some funky Athlon 1GHz-GeForce 2 combo!

Red alert

bones
Ok, did anyone EVER figure out how to get this working under win 2k professional? I would really hate to have to format, install win 98, then re-install win 2k pro. #1. When installing, if I choose do not install direct x, then it installs, but doesn't run, due to some weird error.

Anyone have problems with it crashing the 2nd time you run it? I can only run it once, then I'd have to reboot if I want to play it again. . . .

Win 95 games on W2K

jmikeye
I heard that there is a utility that can make games think they are running on Win 95/98 when they are actually running on Win 2000. Is there such a utility? If so, where can I get it? Thanks.

Indiana Jones is driving me mad

CyberGit
Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine is a fantastic game BUT under Windows 2000 it is driving me mad. I can load a new game and play it just fine. Once in a new game I can load existing games with no problems and everything works great.
