http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=9639 http://www.nforcershq.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=637 Many folks have reported: Memory performance dropped More audio issues Hard drive spinning up & down during reboot and random clicking noises Driver uninstall OS death featur...err bug Maybe a clean install would be better but I'll stick with the 2.03 until nvidia gets it's crap together.

If you're using WinXP/SP1 goto Start>Set Program Access and Defaults, select Custom. Under Choose a default virtual machine for Java, click the Microsoft Virutal Machine then click OK. Not sure if the problem is related but this fixed some webpages not fully loading for me.

Some drivers at this site, old & new: http://alive.singnet.com.sg/drivers/ I recommend the current windows update drivers. Seem the best now, IMO.

I had a quirky problem like this when I upgraded the CPU in a Abit BX-2 board. First I reset all the BIOS options to default so the Soft Menu would be cleared and back to default, saved then shutdown. I then cleared the CMOS for good measure. Good luck!

Do any of these software packages do something like 'DirectCD' does??? My version of directcd doesn't work in XP, or do I just need to buy the newest version???

I agree about 7.52. Very nice driver set. No problems in Asheron's Call either.

It needs lots of tweaking to get going in both Win9X and Win2K. Visit the BoB messageboards at SimHQ for lots of info on improving performance: http://www.simhq.com/cgi-bin/boards/cgi-...&LastLogin=

Great, downloading now. Is there a win2k patch yet for the full version?

Bump!

Install 6.31 or any other 6.xx. It's a known problem with HL games using 7.xx.

Quote: <font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Originally posted by elomire678: The Live! drivers for Windows 2000 are and always have been WDM. Personally I've never had any problems with my Live! in Windows 2000, 98 or 95. I've had it for 2 1/2 years and not a single problem. </font> I partly agree. I find the sound quality overall to be better under Win9X. The drivers have had time to mature, I guess. I just hope Creative will release a respectable driver set under Win2K soon. The biggest tweak to improving the sound quality in Win2K is downloading the DirectX control panel and setting the debugging to 'less'. WDM Beta drivers seem to help as well. Regards.

Aqua-sounds like a refresh rate problem. Just use Dxdiag to maybe force all directx games to use one set refresh rate like 85hz.

A few things you could try, at your own risk: I downgraded to 6.31 from NVIDIA to prevent some lockups in a few games I own. You could try that as last resort. Follow the instructions at the following link, has helped some with sound quality/lockup/stutter issues, works with just about any soundcard: http://arstechnica.infopop.net/OpenTopic...amp;m=514098692 If you happen to have a Creative SBLive then try these updated drivers (beta version 5.12.1.3110): http://alive.singnet.com.sg/drivers/wdm0101.htm

Judging from their messageboards it seems many others are having the problem you described in Windows2000 with Sea Dogs. Maybe patch 1.05 will help? Who knows. Check out this thread: http://seadogs.bethsoft.com/ubb/Forum3/HTML/000369.html Have you tried other drivers yet? I had lockup issues with NHL2001 and only way it would run without problems was with 6.31 from NVIDIA. And NTCompatible says : Sea Dogs (Bethseda) Yes W2000 12/00 Works great, with or without patch.
