Black screen...

WyldKard
In certain games, when I run them, I just get a black screen. It's happened ever since I upgraded the drivers for my Asus 6800 Deluxe to the 3. 79 Final drivers from the 3. 75. I don't have the 3. 75 drivers anymore.

Will Win2k Gameplay always be slower?

pr-man
Are games slower in Win2k mainly because vid card drivers have not matured? Or will they never really reach Win98 levels? Celeron 300a@464 on a Abit BH6 Rev 1. 01, 192 Pc100, Matrox G400 32 SH, SBlive Value, Supra Express 56i ISA, all running on Win2k pro with other odds and ends.

Soundblaster Live

JBrave715
I'm about to buy Sound blaster Live! Xgamer tomorrow and was wondering if it's actually recommended for Windows 2000? I heard bad things with their new Live Ware for windows 2000 drivers. And is it worth the extra $100 to get SB Live! platinum instead or would I notice that big of a difference?.

Ground control and 2000?

noxa
I just picked up Ground Control, and for some reason, software mode runs better than hardware! System: -Windows 2000 Pro -PIII 733 Coppermine -256MB RDRAM -90GB HD (45+30+20) -TNT1 16MB PCI (it's not the card, as I can get amazing FPS in other games, in both OpenGL and D3D) ~noxa~
