Hi wheneever I try to play Counter-Strike (Full Release) and mods, such as day of defeat, win2k crashes sooner or later. Can anybody help me? I am a desperate game freak so i don't know what to do. My system: Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 MSI K7T Turbo Motherboard 320MB RAM Elsa Erazor III Pro Grafixcard Hercules Muse XL Soundcard Level One Networkcard So, can anybody help me? I'd appreciate your help in any way... Thank you!!! sir.icy

Quote: ..that MS actually replied to you. wowsers! Well, not only that! They were also very nice, and even made jokes (Well might be that the german support team isn't as tough as their American clones. Maybe Microsoft had some problems witht the chips they implanted into their support bots ). Service pack 3??? I only know that it will come out maybe this year, i hope so... Well the soundcard problem >>> Microsoft has made a problem.... Like always....

now thats a little nice support list!!! However it isnt actually the disk space (40GB Seagate Baracuda III ) or temp directories, its actually the soundcard. Microsoft support sent me an email saying that this problem comes up when a pci slot gets a kind of overdose from power supply. I hope they fix that in the Service Pack 3, as there werent any other problems in win98 (however there were other prblems...). Right now I have it on onboard sound, which of course is sh** like hell, but it works... I have to wait till the sevice Pack comes out and see if that works.... sir.icy

i dont know what i have, its still from the pc i bought, all other stuff i put in myself... But does it work? Right now im running on onboard sound which sucks like hell.... Maybe ill get a new one, however, i dont have any problems with it now....

DiD you already try to install the standard drivers for win2k? Its actually strange, as it should accept the cdrom just like that, just like a floppy drive. If the standard drivers don't work, try to get some somewhere else, or save all your work and do the historical most-often-did dos command >>>>>>>> Format c: sir.icy

Hey, exactly the same happens to me, when a lot of shooting or exploding is going on. How do you fix that??? Shall i put it in a new pci slot?... thx
