GeForce's conflict with Win2k & AMD

Chipmunk
When I converted from Win 98 to Win 2k, I experienced a major problem when running direct3d or opengl games or applications. For example, when I run 3d Mark 2000, sometimes half way through the testing, a blue screen of death will appear, with an error message: ***STOP:0x0000001E (0xc0000005, 0xBCA6E379, 0x00000000 ...

Delta Force Land Warrior, IPX and Win2k ???

LasseHansen
Can´t play on Novalogic, can only host new games. Can´t even play LAN-games over IPX. I have contacted support at Novalogic; they claim Lan-games over IPX and Windows 2000 never have worked (DF1, DF2 and DF3).

EAX doesn't work?

SnowHawk
The only game I know for sure where EAX works is in Halflife. . If you try it in UT you will get bad crackling sounds. And Other games Usually screw up with it on. . PLUS I always get error logs about Sound being screwed up.

New Voodoo Drivers break tony hawks2, bummer!

Reaper_uk
Just thought i'd let people know before they install the drivers and have the game. i'm talking about the new voodoo4/5 drivers released on the 9th november. I have directx8 on now also, but that wasn't teh cause because i had it on before i put on the new drivers and the game still worked fine.

Eternal quesiton: UT or Q3

Bursar
I'm thinking of getting one of these games, but I can't decide which one. I know both of them have a large following, but let me tell you what I'm after from the game before I ask for your opinions on which one to go for.
