Does Whistler use NTFS? (nt)

DeadCats

Our streets will be safer, our police more efficient, and the world will follow our lead into the future! -Adolph Hitler, 1935 Being married to a programmer is like o ...

WIN2K Help!

padstack
Recently I tried to update the drivers for my Voodoo banshee (creative) board in WIN2K. When I did, all of the colers went to 16. Before, I could go to 32 bit with the windows drivers. I tried to uninstall, but it would always make me reinstall the same Beta drives that screwed me up.

enabling start page in beta 1

felix
Now that I have installed beta 1, I was hoping to test out the funky features. Thus I was hoping that someone would be able to tell me the steps used to activate the start page (the funky full screen one).

Flickering 3D...

FakeMcCoy
I'm using the Leadtek Geforce 2 MX (using Detonator 3 - 631), and I'm getting some odd flickering in games. It's like a texture flickering. I'm running between 75-100 Hz, and it happens in both D3D and OpenGL.

That MS AGP4x VIA patch...

antareus
Tried the patch out a bit with games, it made a nice difference in games, Tribes was nauseatingly fast indoors (either that or it was because I just woke up ) and I tried UT as well, I didn't see much improvement.

Kyosho46vr
Ok I finally made the jump to Socket A and went from FIC to ASUS, it took 2 hours and everything seems fine with the switch from my SD11 and Athlon 750, and W2K took the complete change really well! Now what are some good tweaks out there? Ned

Det 6.47 fixes speed hit under DX8betas

Dragon-Lord
I have been testing the various DX8 betas with all of the leaked Det3 drivers for my Geforce DDR under Win2K. Through various iterations, my 3DMark2000 (directx) scores would be either 2500 or 3300, never anything in between.
