Astaroth

I'm trying to setup a multiplayer game between two PCs using Network Setup or Direct Internet Setup. When trying Network Setup, the two PCs can communicate through chat but when one hosts a game, the other cannot see it in the game list.

abernasconi

Hi, I'm not able to solve this problem. . . My pc is a PII300, 128 Mb RAM, 1,6 Gb HD free space. When I run EF2000 under DOS emulation, I get an error message: the program needs 24 Mb of free HD space or RAM and it seems that only 15 Mb are free.

acidspray

To cover the basics: The problem cropped up after a fresh install of Win2k with SP1 and all the updates. I start get into hl (or cs), setup everything, set video (800x600, OGL, 3dfx mini) and try to start a game.

I used apcompat. exe and the game installed just fine. But when I try to run the win95 version then it runs in a extrymely low resolution and then it gives me some weird error and thats all. The dos version works fine but its low res and the win95 version is supposed to run at the res at which my desktop is set.

Superbike 2001 - Can It Be Done?

MoreLight

Another fricking year has come and gone and it still appears that EA has no intention of supporting Windows 2000 gamers. Its only a fluke rather by intention that any of their games will run in 2000 and its us gamers that have to figure it out.

Mechwarrior 2 & Mech2: Mercs

DosFreak

I have tried everything I can think of. My version of Mechwarrior 2 is only the DOS version. So I need to somehow get the files to convert it to a Windows version. I know their is a Windows version but I don't see why I should buy it since I already have it.

Metal Gear Works ..... But Don't Waste Your Time

MoreLight

Yep another game that runs in Win2k. But save your money and don't bother. This is one dated mother of a game. Crappy camera angle, blocky pixellated graphics and just a pig on computer resources at its highest resolution of 1024x768.

When I have 3d acceleration turned on, I get strobing in the game. During the game, the whole screen would strobe, like a strobe light. When I turn it off, everything works fine. I'm using V2k on Win2k.
