who is this sandvic charater? i build gaming systems for a living and i use win2k as my gaming platform....its awesome and i dont get any call backs because of games crashing like they did in winblows 98, the biggest complaint from my customers was that they were tired of having to reboot every 10 minutes. also, most gamers like to run game servers if they are on high bandwidth connections. win2k is ,oh, so much better when it comes to networking....ive built a few systems that run q3 servers as a system service and the stabality is excellent...so, as far as win2k not being a good gaming platform, thats bunk. also as far as gaming companies not supporting win2k in future, that is also bunk, huge game developers like id software saw the future and concentrated on the nt kernel.....so if yer gaming and yer using win2k YOU are the future. ------------------ ŖőĢǚΣ

has anyone seen drivers for the ati rage IIc? hacked or otherwise? i want to enable opengl or d3d support and it doesnt look like ati is going to make any drivers for it at all.....this sucks cause the card is only a few months old ------------------ ŖőĢǚΣ

has anyone seen any drivers for the rage IIc....i need hacked or ati drivers....from what ive seen on the website they are not going to release any opengl or d3d drivers at all.....this card is only a couple of months old i cant believe that ati wouldnt release drivers for it

has anyone heard of an opti driver for win2k...i have a friend who cant install his sound card because of lack of support. if he has to get a new sound card which chipsets are supported in win2k?? i told him anything creative works good. i havent install any yamaha soundboards yet because all my customers want high end sound. any help would be highly appreciated. ------------------ ŖőĢǚΣ

try deleting your windows folder and then install dos and then install win2k over that....i heard a guy say that that works for everything...lol

okay lets try this again, a friend is having trouble installing a canon bj2000 printer in windows 2k....has anyone else had any issues with this printer....canon has released drivers for this printer and they dont seem to be doing the job ------------------ ŖőĢǚΣ

i have a friend that has recently installed win2k and downloaded the new drivers for his canon bj2000 printer....he tries to install the drivers and it does nothing.....no new hardware found, nothing. i told him that i believed he wasnt logging on as the admin and that could be the prob. has anyone else encountered probs with the canon bj2000...if so, could you post with possible solutions....thanks

well ive been watching this one for awhile now. first, at first i had hell with win2k in beta, but now my system is a gamers dream. i was using beta or hacked drivers for all of my hardware but now creative and others have released their drivers. now im not a network or pc guru, but i also work out of my home. i build gaming systems and do home networking for a living. all of my gaming systems are built around win2k now. now like everyone else has said i dont know what you are doing wrong but my machine works flawlessly. my games never crash like they did under win9x. i dont have to reboot my sys every 20 minutes like i did with 98. also dont even get me started on overclocking. i dont know what ms did in win2k to improve the overclocking ability but i salute them. i have a junker machine( im sure most ppl at this forum has one) that is a 266mhz p2 that ive managed to overclock to almost 500mhz. to me that is very impressive. all my machines are overclocked now and when i used win98 i couldnt do this. same machines, same cpu's. so i dont have a clue what you are doing wrong but almost all my apps work perfectly and even in a lot of instances that work better. win98 was so discouraging, it always crashed for some reason. my wife's machine is still 98 and she has such hell with it. im always working out irq problems and trying to find out why its crashing. not to mention when she does a windows update. after a window update her computer is unstable for days. i dont even want to list all the games and apps that ive gotten to work under win2k. it would blow your mind if youre whining so much about issues. because ive got very few. i salute these guys at this forum too because when win2k was in its beta form i got drivers for my hardware so could play games and do so much. so i suggest you go to an apple forum somewhere and whine about ms there. youre obviously an over educated moron.(and believe me i know a few) you could do other things for attention, one suggestion is to go jump in front of a fast moving bus. that would get you the attention you need and deserver......lol ŖőĢǚΣ

well i was having the same probs but creative has just released their drivers for win2k and my creative anhilator ddr works fine with their drivers.....i have a 466mhz celeron oced to 600.....win2k pro.....

well i went ahead and did a clean install the drivers work real good except the register.exe crashed, i reinstalled without regestering it and it installed fine....its about time we had some cl drivers, now if creative would build some drivers for my dxr2, dvd, and my tnt2 ultra id be set

well i have a friend who has more money than is good for him and he runs advanced server out of his home....he has an email server and a chat server that he runs from it, as well as an awesome lan set up (with t1 i might add), we have have killer q3 lan parties on it....ill be sure to tell him not to come here if he has problems. just kidding! im just making a point that just about everybody at this forum has a friend like ken. the rich guy who has everything including a $30,000 server set up in their home, well maybe not that over the edge, but i know serveral ppl who run their businesses out of there home who would and do use win2k advanced server. im considering purchasing it myself, i just landed a job running a 300 computer network for a local isd...im considering scrapping the whole token ring and novell setup for a total microsoft setup....anyway, in this very active economy we are enjoying right now you would be very suprised to know how many ppl are running very advanced setups out of thier homes. i myself have 5 computers in my home and i use one for a server.....its cheezy but it serves its purpose....i only run an ftp and a q3 server on it....so lets keep the suspicions down and help ppl out....that's my opinion and i could be wrong

well ive tried everything and this install seems to be worst than the hacked version that i was using before. ive tried installing it 4 times and it hangs just after the registration. then the register.exe generates errors if i try it in safe mode....if i try to just update the drivers my machine reboots before login and i have to go into safe mode to remove the drivers.....it seems that these are very beta drivers....if anyone figures out a work around for this let me know

well ive tried to install 4 times and it hangs....

does anyone have this in zip format...i hate rar files cause i dont seem to have the savvy to extract em

well if the live ware works then i would go back to liveware 1.0.....cause no matter how much installing i do i still have major probs with the liveware 3.0 in win2k....where are you guys finding the sb live win2k drivers? i searched creative and i couldnt find em
