DOS Freak, Tell me this then. Why did my 3dmark score drop like 5000 points when I installed Windows 2000? I had something like 5030; after win2k--> 28 3dmark score.. and yes I am running the same hardware as with 98..

Great help buddy. -bZj You are the biggest moron I've seen in my life; that's just the email I use for misc. (bb's, signing up for tripod for example.. etc) my real email is stisev@Home.com. I've been on a real ISP for the last 7 years, and most indefinately can wup your sorry ass in that and everything else. Dumbass

No; you do not loose surround sound. (I'm running it right now); however, you DO loose EAX. Price to pay for stability

Quote: Originally posted by Turbo Grunkamoj: Hi I was wondering if there is any difference in resources, performance and so on, depending on what you log on win2kpro as? If I log in with my administrator, and play games like quake2 and so on, is there any difference if I use another form of user, such as poweruser och normal user? Is there any such difference? No. All the hardware work at the same level; however, IF settings are different between users (example: administrator has FULL hardware acceleration, while guest has 3 notches down) then yes, performance will be different. It's all about the settings.

Chipmunk, You are OVERBLOATING the situation. First; you NEED to turn AGP down to 1x (Use powerstrip or go to www.geforcefaq.com and download a regfix) Second, turn fastwrite OFF Third, GET NEW FUCKING DISPLAY DRIVERS nv4disp.dll or whatever that blue screen of death error was, was caused by your graphics drivers. Click HERE and get the OFFICIAL Det. 3 drivers; this will solve your problem. I'm almost sure of it. Hope this helps -sev

Netscape blows BIG TIME sorry Use IE 5.01; it's the best browser out right now.. Period.

After you limited the bandwidth, make sure it's done right by checking HERE

The Montego II can be found for below . You can't get much cheaper than that. By the way, the Santa Cruz is awesome when it comes to six-speaker playback! Also, it is compatible with all currently releases versions of Windows > Windows 95. Check out compgeeks.com and computershopper.com for prices on TB sound cards. franzj, I dont know if you were bashing SB LIVE 5.1 (too lazy too read whole thing), but it were you need to get a life SB LIVE 5.1 for $95.00 is the best one rightn ow or SB lIVE! VALUE (normal NOT 5.1) $45-$50.00 is the best value.

Quote: Originally posted by ~Aragorn~: Ok 1 question - is there any difference between the SB Live Player 1024 and the SB Live Player 5.1 The creative website says your card will never become obsolete since any new revelations will be providied by new Liveware but how can the provide a dolby Digital Decoder with a software update??? Please help me IMHO, SB LIVE! Value for $45.00-$50.00 is the best one to buy right now. Unless of course you HAVE a center channel to connect to

Event Log, Protected Storage, Plug n Play is set to automatic. What are your settings? DremNeonBlack, trust me on this one, especially if you're running windows 2000l. DO NOT FUCK WITH YOUR SERVICES It will only end up fucking you over. Just make sure these services are disabled "NETBIOS helper or something" "Telnet Administration or something like that" That's all. bye -sev

I find it hard to belive you get the final version from a pir8te site/ftp, unless you get the final from a tester that uploaded it somwhere witch would mean its not the storefront retail version That's what they SAY, but internal distribution starts waaaay earlier than that. I got it from a temporary ftp my friend setup; however, I bought the game, since I like it so much. Remember pir8ting is NOT for stealing, it's for evaluation ( ;( )

d0x. You are worrying too much Quote: posted by d0x Application popup: DfrgNtfs.exe - Application Error : The instruction at "0x0100c8e1" referenced memory at "0x115e8132". The memory could not be "read". Click on OK to terminate the program Click on CANCEL to debug the program This is just a "Application Instruction Error" (like a bug in a program) It is NOT your RAM. DfrgNtfs.exe prolly had some little bug in it while you were defragging and snatched the bug and said "shit" hehe and displayed the error message As long as it works ok from then on, don't worry about it.

Quote: posted by gambler Since I am tired of my SB Live problems I wanto try another soundcard. Which do you guys recomend for win2k and quake 3? Thats what I mostly do, win2k and quake 3 Oh and it needs 5.1 analogue output! Gambler; just run MICROSOFT Certified WHQL Drivers I LOVEEEE IT. I had Liveware 3 and I always had BSOD's (blue screen of deaths) all over the place with Sound Blaster LIVE! I love microsoft's SB LIVE! drivers; they are iron solid. -sev

MSVCRT.DLL for Win32 Error: MSVCRT.DLL is not compatilble with win32s --- I had this error before. Sorry, I did a clean_install of windows 2000. I suggest you do the same. bye -sev

Phsycho, mine does the same thing, sometimes. It sometimes sends it, sometimes doesn't. Stop being lazy and click the damn button

Ok this IS the thing to if you have iE 5.5 Do a clean install of your OS (trust me) Then install IE 5.01 SP1, but do NOT touch 5.5. It will give you a lot of instruction memory not read errors

I think it's either hardware dependent, or software dependent and doens't have anything to do with the printer; however, if I'm wrong i'd like to know. I love it when it prints it backwards MUCH easier for me.

If you run windows 2000, it automatically detects explorer instability and RESTARTS explorer(.exe), but leaves your programs untouched. Win2000 <--- the best windows OS on earth. Period.
