ThC 129

how are you trying to install 2k from within ME or direct of the CD?? Try an install by booting off the CD not from within an OS.

well a vid card fan isnt too much i mean even if you get one of the blue orbs those are only 15-20 bucks. So shell out the small amount of cash for one.

yeah duke nukem forever has been in development for how long now like 3-4 years?? By time they get finished with it Duke Nukem will need a wheel chair to just shoot things. By time DNF comes out there will be Doom 10 and Quake 20

decompress the exe that it came in and there should be an uninstall program with it.

hmm sounds like its the problem with the software. It might not have uninstalled properly so try uninstalling it and making sure that the reg entries ect are fully uninstalled. Then reinstall, otherwise your SOL and will have to format

dont be dissing on wal-mart man i work for them, well did as a part time job so go ahead and screw em. I use my Intellimouse explorer on my USB port and I havent had any problems other than the software not liking win whistler. By far the best mouse ive ever bought.

the official 6.31 drivers have been out for like 4 days. I use whatever the newest is and never have any problems. I have a GF2MX

Any of you whistler 2257 personal users getting asked for your whistler personal CDs on startup because of file protection?? It keeps happening to me i think its because of the DX 8 beta i installed not sure though.

by 'old version' i meant whats the difference between regular duke3d and this glduke

either reinstall or just open up the services applet in admin tools and right click on the individual services and hit properties that should then bring up the properties menu where you can set em back to manual or automatic. If that doesnt work then looks like you will have to do option 1.

ive had reports that even some drivers that wont work on 2k work in whistler.

www.tweak3d.net they have a lot of tweaks for everything

whats so special i havent seen any improvments in this over the old version.

yeah ive heard that the uninstaller works.

just close this topic. By provoking a response from people saying win98 sux bla bla bla he wins. If we say nothing he will tire of it and just go back to win98 then whine and complain when nobody supports 9x anymore. Then we can be like told ya so.

yeah beta 1 is gonna rule hardcore. If the alphas are getting better by the version i cant wait to see the finalised product.

yeah im sure you checked out those jap school girls anyway.

try the athlon 2k patch (check the news on the front page for it or look around for a link) latest nvidia drivers and check the geforce faq (http://www.geforcefaq.com) if that links wrong there is always that news search again. I think tweak3d.net has a Geforce tweak guide too.

sorry for busting your balls earlier man i was just fukin with ya. I tried the 2k patch in whistler and my speed jumped from 500 kbits to 1190 kbits. I always thought those things never worked either.

yeah but i still dont think that LW 4 is going to be out anytime soon. Maybe like march or april by time it is.

no we cant because this topic isnt in the win9x forum.

well nagul, I wouldnt diss whistler until you have tried it. As for compatability issues the only problems ive encoundered are software related and are due to the tweaking of the kernal and would be pretty easy to solve once the OS progresses. I use whistler as my primary OS and Win2k as my secondary and its still in alpha because Whistler fixes all the bugs that were in 2k (as of the latest 2257 build more will be fixed as the patches come out for w2k), is faster, skinable, a hell of a lot better looking than 2k. Plus many many many many more reasons. Whistler is as stable as if not more so than w2k.

yeah, thats like saying My lawnmower wont run because my refrigerator is broken. DirectX which in HLs case would be D3D isnt even remotely related to OpenGL

its out but i havent been able to find any leaks of it. I heard the new skinable UI is coming together nicely though.

thats because 1. HL doesnt like Direct3d 2. HL is tweaked to OpenGL and 3. HL just doesnt like windows2000 much in general. Yes it will run but there are a few issues with the engine and win2k.
