SCSI RAID

louissan
Hi there, I plan to purchase an adaptec RAID controller, the cheap one: AAA 131U2. But I heard RAID was not quite supported by W2k, especially SCSI RAID. So, I am to use W2k server or W2k workstation-equivalent ? If I choose the first solution, will AGP and other multimedia stuff still be supported ? Cheers.

Asus P3V4X & Win2KPro

ganesha
For some reason Win2K decides to put all peripherals under IRQ9 which is causing conflicts. Forcing IRQs to slots has no effect. Changing slots has no effect. The main problem is with my sound card-Monster MX300.

Networking mouse problems

Kermy
I have a Linksys LNE100TX NIC. I'm running Win2k and installed the latest drivers off the linksys site for win2k. However, when I startup win2k and then try to access the interent (via Internet explorer, AOLIM, ICQ, etc) it goes for a minute or so then stops, the connection drops and my mouse slows down too.

BP6/Geforce DDR /SMP Success story

pvg
I've had the 'random lockup' problems when running q3a on my Guillemot DDR Geforce under win2k and NT ever since the AGP enabled drivers came out. I've finally managed to get it working reliably with the 3.

Windowed UT w/ 3.76 TNT2 Drivers

Chum
After searching the forum, I found references that said the stock Win2K drivers wouldn't work as there was no OpenGL or AGP support. Well, I installed the latest (3. 76) drivers for the TNT2 and I still get the windowed version.

No OpenGL

ParaDoX
A couple of days ago I upgraded to Win2000 Pro 2195 (was running RC3 before). I installed the 3. 76 Nvidia drivers, then I rebooted. Everything worked perfect. But then, after the next reboot, OpenGL wouldn't work anymore, I didn't install any programs etc before the reboot.
