** AGP enabled in 3.69 ** (Yeehah)

Mistral
Just downloaded the lates TNT/GeForce 3. 69 drivers from installed and, lo and behold, AGP *IS* enabled. Also it seems that they have fixed a problem I was having with jerky screen in Virtual Pool (sound now delays a bit but that could be the hacked LiveWare I have).

MS Intellimouse Explorer Build 2195

Jazzman
Anyone else have the problem with both the PS/2 and USB drivers showing up in the Device Manager. I've removed the PS/2 one about 5 times, but every time I reboot, it gets reinstalled. I've tried both the initial W2K 2195 drivers, and the drivers off the Intellipoint 3.

Virtual COM Ports?

bkehoe
Hi, I have this problem with Win2k and Win Millenium Beta 2. I installed Win2k onto my Gateway Solo 2500 PII laptop with no hiccups. Full ACPI was detected. Great! I said to myself, but the smile wasn't to last.

Voodoo3: Funky colours

Dan
I recently installed the Voodoo3 drivers located at and now my graphics are really weird colours. I have seen this before in Quake by increasing the gamma way too far, but even Powerstrip doesn't seem to correct it.

100% CPU usage related to IE scrolling

MagitekKn
On my V770u (tnt2u) video card under 2195, when the screen is redrawn quickly (as in smooth scrolling in IE5 but curiously not in something like q3 or half-life) the CPU usage will jump to 100%. I didn't notice this behaviour prior to detonator 3.

Creative Savage4 Opengl and Win2k

wildfire
The standart win2k drivers works fine with my savage4(although I can only choose 60hz refresh rate, which is odd) but both direct3d and opengl doesn't work. Halflife gives the error: This opengl mode is not supported by your video card.

ACPI under Win2k

SeanR561
Hi, I have a AX59 Pro Super7 motherboard with the latest bios revision, the processor is an AMD K6-2 350. I'm trying to get ACPI to work under Win2k. I had no luck under Windows 98, but the bios shows ACPI enabled and that the IRQ is 9.

DXR2 probs..

Ubik
I'm having trouble getting my Creative DXR2 MPEG card working. Looking at previous posts, it seems that earlier win2k builds supported it, then later ones didn't. Installing the WDM drivers from Creative was supposed to fix things.
