Turn off that restore crap.

If there is an MSvcr file in your driver directory then rename it. If not then replace the msvcr file in your \winnt\system32 and drivercache with msvcr from NT CD.

Yep, your games run in the foreground.

Depends on where you live.

If you download the Application Compatibility Toolkit it has a registry fix (same fix that Whistler has) that will be installed upon install. You won't receive and error upon installs NFS HS anymore.

Whistler Personal CPU: Maximum number - 1 Minimum speed - 233 megahertz (MHz) Recommended speed - 300 MHz RAM: Minimum - 64 megabytes (MB) Maximum - 4 gigabytes (GB) Recommended - 128 MB Hard disk space: Minimum - 2 GB Whistler Professional (32-Bit Edition and for Intel Itanium systems) CPU: Maximum number - 2 Minimum CPU speed - 233 MHz Recommended CPU speed - 300 MHz RAM: Minimum - 64 MB Maximum - 4 GB Recommended - 128 MB Hard disk space: Minimum - 2 GB Whistler Advanced Server (32-Bit Edition and for Intel Itanium systems) CPU: Maximum number - 8 Minimum speed - 233 MHz Recommended CPU speed - 300 MHz RAM: Minimum - 128 MB Maximum - 8 GB Recommended - 256 MB Hard disk space: Minimum - 2 GB

yeah, I saw the quote on the first page and right-away knew it was a pos (the review). Didn't even go to the site.....too afraid I'd lose a couple of IQ points.

Convert X: /FS:NTFS /V

Games's don't access the HD that match so the format doesn't really matter. If you dual-boot any have no security or data integrity concerns use FAT32. If you want your stuff to be safe & secure use NTFS. I only use NTFS on my gaming machine and it's perfect. Also CD's are a uniform format. No need to worry about it. What you burn in NT can be read in 9x and vice versa.

heh. I can imagine home users now with unreliable CDRW's. Where'd my files go? But I burned them? I backed up all my important stuff on there!!!! heheheheheh

I haven't tried to install M4 on Whistler but it's highly likely that it's trying to install a 9x Directx 8 and it's unable to see your NT DX8. There should be an option where you can unselect installing Directx.

Change 4.5 to 5.

33=bus speed

CLK/3=SX/DX16,DX20,DX25,DX2/50,DX4/100 CLK/4=SX/DX33,DX266,DX3/99 CLK/5=DX40,DX2/80 CLK/6=DX50,DX2/100 CLK=half speed of processor /x=divider ex: If I have a 486DX4/100 then my settings would be: CLK/3 Reason: CLK=33X3=99mhz

Don't use GlSetup. PLEASE

There is not a difference in performance in ACPI or Standard. Both are the same performancewise unless your mobo does not support ACPI properly. If it does not then your system will perform improperly with ACPI.

Cisco is the Internet. Cisco is the company that produces most of the hardware that interconnects all of the computers in the world. A Cisco router is just like any other router except that it is made by Cisco and you can be sure that it is of higher quality than any other.

Download this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/compatibility/ It makes ALOT more woftware compatibile with Windows 2000 on install. Also it includes tools to help you to get software to work by tricking them (much more advanced than APCOMPAT). Choose each option 1 by one tho.

Yep, that could easily write an app that chews up however much ram they choose and then hide it in a service somewhere.

I want Dos sound & Vesa emulation dangit. arrgh, gotta go home. Be back in 12hrs.

Well this can thread can degenerate into useless garbage posts (at which you seem to excel) or it can actually be an informative read to the people of this board. Which shall it be? (It looks to me like you posted the last post because I have gone way over your head and you've got nothing left to back you up. Prove me wrong.)

Who are you talking to jdulmage? Me? It must be me I guess because I'm the only one who responded to your post. pr-man posted his thoughts on Whistler and you immediately and bashed him because someone said something bad about "your" os. Since when did this post become fictional? I've responded honestly and truthfully to every post so far so I guess the fictional part of the postage would have to be coming from someone other than pr-man and me. Hmmmm, I wonder who that could be? Jdulmage it's a good thing you aren't on the Ars forums because you wouldn't last 5 seconds on the Batttlefront with your crap.
