Mike Zamarocy
Well, in Mechwarrior 4, the screen flashing is gone, but now a new problem has cropped up. In Everquest, when I get to the game screen my mouse pointer from my windows desktop (the car key from Windows on the Road Theme) is imprinted there.

I adjusted my command lines to run my games in High Prioity. But I cant figure out how to make them run that way when I use Gamespy. I could make Gamespy run in High Priority but how about getting Counterstrike to run through Gamespy in High Priority.

BladeRunner
Well after many weeks, months maybe, I've just this evening completed Baldur's Gate II. What a game! What a roller-coaster. If you don't already own this game, purchase it at once and enter a world you will find hard to leave.

Leadtech WinFox - how to keep it with NV 6.47 drivers?

Mike Zamarocy
When I install any driver other than Leadtech's (which latest is 6. 66, on CD is 6. 27), the ADVANCED and HOT options no longer work. I really like these, so would like to keep them usable. I tried to replace the NV CPL and DESK DLL files, but that didn't help.

CueClub problems

Bka32
I originally was able to get CueClub working on my computer when it first came out. Now when I go to run it, even after a fresh install, it does the same thing, it just flashes a black screen for a fraction of a second and then goes back to the desktop.
