    +win2k +defragmenting +fat32 +rc3

    I read somewhere that the problem with defragmenting in win2k for fat32 hd's is fixed in the RC3 release. Can someone confirm this? I got 250000 lost clusters last time I defragged my hd in win2k so I'm a little scared off...

    +win2k +defragmenting +fat32 +rc3

    Impressive latency. SHS, I dualboot along with win98 so I only have one ntfs HD; the one win2k is installed on. The others are fat32. Ekstreme, the developers had a hard time defining the problem since it was really hard to reproduce, they could defrag a HD houndred times and everything would be fine. Just to get troubles the 101th time...

    win2k g400 drivers & quake 3

    Yep That opengl32.dll file is the TurboGL installed by win98's 5.41 PowerDesk. Also, don't exit the game after you've played in non-fullscreen mode (windowed), then the BSOD comes for you I haven't tested so much (hate bsods), but killing the app in task manager could prevent the blue screen. edit: tested some more, and I got a BSOD with task killing too. However, now bsod stand for Black Screen Of Death. It actually killed the display, giving me an "Attention, no signal" message shortly followed by the "Power Save" message on my monitor.

    OpenGL drivers for G400 & rc3 ?

    They are now public. It's not easy getting games to work with this version. They either crash, go slow or have artifacts. I really look forward to their next release. If it fixes the crashing in d3d games I can play unreal, mechwarrior, expendable and probably drakan without the machine to freeze. Nocturne however, is currently playable.

    It's the NT4 workaround.

    New Win2k drivers for Matrox G400

    Adviced Q3A settings: Video Mode: 640x480 Color Depth: 32bit Lightning: Vertex Geometric: Low Texture Detail: Almost highest Texture Quality: 16bit Texture Filter: Bilinear No ejecting brass and low quality sky This is with RC3, I don't know if q3 even works in other builds. Also, don't try other resolutions than 640, 800(?), 1024 and 1280. They are not supported and might freeze your system.

    Windows Millennium compatibility list?

    No games are currently optimized for win2k, so it's too early benchmarking. Millennium is win98 patched up with new features (hence more unstable) and carries on what current games have been optimized for. However, when win2k gets released and developers start using it (many have already), games will get optimized and eventually faster on it than millennium. Since display drivers are less mature yet, the speed up is mostly noticable in game loading time.
