Yes, that is one option that has crossed my mind. But, I like the options Mouseware give me, and I'm used to the low acceleration mode etc (I don't think the "Enhance pointer precision" the MS software has gives the same feeling). Thanks for the advice though

I'm having problems with "sticky-keys" when using Mouseware in XP. I'm using a Logitech Mouseman Dual Optical, and when I press all the buttons at the same time when I'm gaming one of the buttons lock up, got to release it and activate it again to free it up. This is very annoying since I'm using all the three buttons when gaming. I've tried version 9.0, 9.24 and 9.41 (the newest one, XP compatible), makes no difference. Also downloaded the critical update and DX 8.1. Anyone who might know a solution to this?

Using only 256mb ram didn't work, thanks for the tip anyway. Guess I'll have to wait for new drivers from Hercules. Something strange though... I tried to apply the largepageminimum and sysparse reg fixes for Win2k, just as a last option. This totally messed up the sound, it would noise at all times, so I had to reinstall XP (forgot to take backup of the old settings).

I have a Hercules Fortissimo II soundcard, based on the CS4624 chip. I'm having problems with the soundcard being really noisy, so much noise that you can't hear anything else but the noise. It happens when playing HL (haven't tried any other games yet), some times it won't noise, but when the noise starts (it doesnt start in the middle of the game, just when I restart HL) I have to reboot XP to get rid of it. When playing mp3's it works fine, except if I use the keyboard shortcuts (MS Inet pro) to stop/next song/etc, then it will noise. I've tried the original drivers from Hercules, drivers from Cirrus Logic, and the Santacruz WinXP beta drivers (they were compatible with the CS4624 chip). Anyone who's experienced this problem, or might know a solution to this? I'm running build 2505 of XP.

Quote: I had the same problem with u with my KT7A-Raid, I was getting like 13000 in Sisandra and I noticed the HPT370 driver is the default one for XP, so I updated the driver to Highpoint's 1.0.3b driver and I got a boost back up to 34000. I'm not sure if it's right to do to use the driver other than the one provided in xp but so far I've no problems, but I've only been using it for couple days. You didn't install any other patches etc? I'm using the 1.0.3b drivers, but I'm still getting 10000 in Sandra. I've tried the newest drivers too, but they just give me mouse jittering.

Is there any way to improve the disk performance in XP, since via4in arent compatible? I'm getting a drive index of 10 000 in Sandra2001, and this is using RAID-0, was getting around 40 000 in Win2k.

I just installed WinXP RC1, and I can't seem to turn mouseaccel completely off. I'm using Logitech Mouseware for my mouse, but setting mouseaccel to off there doesn't disabled it 100%. I don't like gaming with mouseaccel, so I want it completely off. Is it anywhere in the registry you can turn it off, or some other way?

I found WindowblindsXP Alpha2... but it felt almost as slow as Win2k with Windowblinds imo =\

I'm running WinXP build 2462. I've tried to open up luna.msstyles with ResourceHacker to edit the bmp's, just want to change the blue colors, it's a little too bright. After replacing some bmp's, and saved the file as luna.msstyles, it will just get replaced by the original luna.msstyles after some seconds. Anyone who knows a workaround for this? I've set SFCDisabled to 1 in the registry, which should disable the file protection? I've seen a couple of skins made for build 2419, but they won't work on 2462.

It's only got Win98 compatability, but some people are able to run it under Win2k, and others not. I've tried the compatability app, just gives me a program error =\ ------------------ Duron 800@1050 ABit KT7-RAID 512Mb PC133 Dual IBM 45Gb's - RAID-0 Hercules GF2 GTS Plextor 12x/10x/32x SB Live 1024

The game loads up fine, and loads all the textures when trying to start a race, but then it kicks me back to the desktop. Anyone who knows how make this game work in Win2k? From what I've read some have no problems with it, and others have the same problem as me.

Just tried to re-install Win2k. After the setup had checked the partition it said something like "The partition is corrupt and cannot be fixed".

Ok, guess I'll have to wait for SP2 then, better then deleting the TOC =] It did convert it with Win2k the last time, strange bug =]

I'm running Win2k from a 30,7gb HD. I've succesfully converted it to NTFS once before, but for some stupid reason I converted it back to FAT32 with PM6 a little while ago. Now I want to convert it NTFS again, using "convert d: /fs:ntfs /v" from the cmd, and rebooting. But when I reboot it says Insufficient memory (three times), and continues to load windows. I have 192mb ram, and 7,5gb of free space on the hd, and I have the exact same system as first time I converted it to NTFS. Is there anyway I can fix this?

I just bought a Soundblaster Live!. After installing it WinMgmt.exe now performs an illegal operation every ~30sec. Downloaded and installed Live!Ware for Win2k, but that didn't help. So I had to disable Windows Management Information. Anyone who has experienced the same problem, and now how to fix this? ------------------ P2 400@516 ABit BX6 2.0 Creative TNT2 Ultra 192MB Ram WD 8,4GB WD 30,7GB Teac 4x/12x CD-R Creative 5x DVD SB Live
