Anyone know anything about using the nomad under NT? It says it only supports 95 and 98 and their webpage and technical support people were useless, but all you have to do is transfer files to the dang thing, right? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Could anyone help me with the install of Win2K drivers for my Elsa TNT2 card? I have tried Elsa's NT driver (era3nt40. zip) but when I re-boot I can't get into Win2k. I can only get in in safe mode. I have also tried to run nVidia's detonator 353 exe, but it fails and reboots win2k.
