Firing Squad Article

Have any of you had the same drastic drops in gaming performance as the ones listed in this article at The Firing Squad? It is comparing the gaming performance of Win98 vs WinME vs Win2K using the 5.

Multiboot setting?

Replicants
I given up on any hope of being able to run games such as Ascendency under Win2k and I have installed Win98 on another partition. I have Win2k on disk 1 (all partitions are NTFS5) and Win98 on disk 2 first partition.

UT 428, D3D & S3TC

Preacher
With the 428 patch, D3D performance is finally close to OpenGL (still 2 - 3 FPS slower, but that is neglectable) I wonder if there´s a way to enable S3TC with Direct3D using a GeForce DDR with Detonator 6.

Force Commander + V5500 + W2K: Possible?

X-AL
I have a P3P 600, 256MB, V5500, W2K: I tried to run Force Commander with my Voodoo 5500 under W2K. If it doesn´t crash after the intro, it will certainly crash in the middle of the first mission. It returns w/o comment to the desktop.

Rogue Spear & Urban Ops under Win2k SP1

Devildog
Well, looks like the SP1 fixed a problem with Redstorm's Rainbow 6 Rogue Spear, and mission pack for it Urban Operations. Fixed a problem many people were having where they had to double click a mouse button to get it to register, HOWEVER, I would like to know if anyone else is experiencing the problem I am.

DirectX 7 for NT4

Phantom_578
Has anyone had any luck with a patch for DirectX 7 for NT4 - you can copy the DirectX 7 files across from a Win9x installation - but I don't recommend it, as any game requesting DirectX crashes because of kernel32.
