Homeworld w/ 2128

Deyja
I have a voodoo2 card as my oGL setup, while my mga200 does the D3D most of the time. For some reason Homeworld goes blank, monitor clicks twice, then it returns to desktop. . . I'm not sure if its the DX7 release or its the mga200 drivers.

Falcon 4 with Voodoo3

EM
I cannot get this game to run at all with my Voodoo3. It worked great in Glide mode with my Voodoo2. I replaced my old stuff with a Voodoo3, clean install of RC1 or RC2 (same results with either) and tried all of Seldzar's stuff from his site and still not working.

Faking InstallShield ?

shiv
Hi, I'm trying to install some Disney Interactive stuff under Nt 4. 0, but it fails with the message that the OS is not 95/98. There is a install. ini file that has an OS_SKIP_CHECK field, but changes to this file don't seem to make any difference even if I put garbage in it.

Pandora's Box on NT4?

lstone
When I start the Microsoft game Pandora's Box, the screen immediately freezes. The mouse pointer stops moving, the keyboard is ignored, even Ctrl-Alt-Del is ignored. I have to power cycle the machine to get it back.

TNT2 Ultra refresh problem :(

MarksmanX
Hi guys, I am having a problem under windows 2000 RC2 with my TNT2 ultra card. I ran quake 1 and 2 but they are at 60Hz refresh rate. My windows is at 100Hz refresh rate. I also have tried increasing quake 2 resolution to 1024 x 768 like my desktop setting, but it's not 100Hz when I run the game.

Slow Games

shadowraven
Under beta 3, all games ran fast, but under RC 2, my games are all jumpy. I am running the driver and directx, ogl, and glide are running. Any ideas on speeding up the games. I used glide in Homeworld, and directx in rogue spear.
