run msconfig and under startup there should be something like audigy starup. just disable that and you should be all set. cryptix

CL's webpage has a signup so you'll get notified about the driver release. They state that they'll be out by mid-oct. With XP being the replacement for the 9x line, I'm pretty sure they'll be out on time. Cryptix

Eddie: will do and thanks for trying. Hopefully this weekend I'll have time to dig into the Reg. Thx, cryptix

Eddie: Yeah, going through the Reg. is a pain and I just don't have the time right now. I did kind of bypass this issue by having my systems hibernate instead of shutting down. If you find a solution before I do then thanks! cryptix

Eddie: I'm using the power buttons on both my tower and laptop. If I use Start->Shutdown->Turn Off then this message doesn't come up. I've yet to find any setting to turn this off although I haven't gone digging in the registry yet. If I go to the Network Tab in the Task Manager I'm the only user logged on so I don't know why it's popping this message up. Win2000 Pro has never done this. Thx, cryptix

Ok, on both my Desktop and my Laptop whenever I press the Power Button to Shutdown I always get a message saying that there is a User logged on (Me) and you'll dump them, do you wish to continue? Is there *any* way to turn this off, it's driving me nuts! It's done this to me on 2419, 2495, and 2505 RC1 Please Help! Thx, cryptix

Ok, does anyone know why when I run a new program that it doesn't get the focus and becomes the app on top? I do have the latest TweakUI installed and have tried to change the Application Focus setting but it does nothing. Any ideas??? Thanks!

does smp work better now? wondering if anyone has checked cause i don't have time this weekend. thankz

WinDVD works on some win2k machines and not on others. It has blown out my system twice so I just use PowerDVD now. Cryptix

I don't know, WinDVD works fine on my friend's PC under Win2k but I'm not trying it in mine anymore. It seems to be 50/50 if it will work on some systems or not. If it does than great, if not switch to another player like I did. Cryptix

NT 4 does not and will not support USB. Switch to Win2000 Pro instead. Cryptix

they work just fine in my system...

I don't know why, but WinDVD always blew out the NT Kernel and I always had to do a clean install because I couldn't repair it. I use PowerDVD now and everything works fine. Cryptix

The file is C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\TWEAKUI.CPL Zap it and it's out of your Control Panel. Cryptix

This is what you do. In your Quake3\baseq3 Dir. create a file called autoexec.cfg and Edit it in Notepad and make sure it looks like this: seta r_ignorehwgamma 1 seta r_gamma 1.4 And then save it. Quake 3 will use these settings every time you start the game so you won't have to worry about it. Cryptix
