3dfx in XP

LavenderLeaf
I just bought myself a Windows XP Professional, and I think it's great, but there's one thing I don't like. It's the fact that 3dfx glide nor OpenGL won't work on Voodoo 5 I don't like the idea of changing back to 98, or changing my 3D card, so I'd like to know if there's ANY way I could get them to work, or if the ...

Pinnacle PCTV in Win2K?

MR
The Pinnacle website states that the PCTV (PCI TV tuner/capture card) is not designed to run in NT or Win2K. Has anyone had any luck getting this card to work in Win2K? I'd rather not dual boot for this.

Simple upgrade turned nightmare

Ron_Jeremy
I recently upgraded my ABIT BF6 mobo from an older 433 Celeron to a newer retail/boxed 100MHz Celeron II 850. I thought it would be a simple swap but 3D apps in Win2k are telling me otherwise. I had never had a compatibility issue until now.
