It runs perfect on my machine with XP english version, installed with Windows ME, and then used the rightclick compatibility mode W95 but only to stop my usb joystick from behaving weird. If you need more info, feel free to ask, this game was a classic for me for many hours\days also. The only thing is thats maybe impossible to install through XP, but than you might be able just to copy the files to harddrive, because the game doesnt write anything into the registry.

aezrulzz first disc, setup.exe klick on it and be happy, lol

Hi, does someone know how to read a DVD-Ram recorded by a Panasonic standalone recorder under Windows 2000? It`s no problem under Windows XP, even using explorer, but a no go under W2K. Any help welcome. Also suggestions for tools or programs which could help.

1. Give me a DVD-Ram Drive 2. Be happy

Yes, same drive, same hardware. W2K by itself seems not compatible with DVD-Ram without other software.

Does someone know how to remove the tv logo after capturing in mpg format? For avi format one can use logoaway, so i am looking for a similar tool.

Yes Ali, maybe thats the solution, i agree with you, there is nothing a newbie cant do with it, hehe. My girlfriend calls everything disc, no matter what it is, floppy, CD, DVD, even other electronic devices, so....

For me its W2K all the way, having problems with xp right from the start (betatester). W2K is faster in rendering mpg4, uses less resources, doesnt need activation (whatever that is...), lets me install new hardware without reactivation (see above), has not 20 spywares installed per default from ms, is rockstable and in my eyes its the os ms has put most care in, as it was the first merging of nt and w9x. Beside that i use server 2003 rc2, but only once in a month to nourish my W2K from the outside.

As i am not using xp anymore, i sold my copy of xp professional and use windows 2000 and server 2003 testversion, i am not familiar with xp home edition. But from what i had on my share of problems with xp, could it be that these poor users just fall in a trap-bug from xp home, maybe 1 false click and they lock the door themselves, unknowingly???? Do they use a simple freeware firewall like yonealarm or sygate personal firewall?

These Daemon Tools guys belong to this category, they sell their product as an advanced version with up to 20 or 40 virtual drives under a different name, and keep the free version for private users, they also have a brilliant support forum for private users mostly concerned with game-backups and anti copy protections.

Gratulations and happy gaming!

Sorry the article is in german, but to cut a long thing short, they testet it and found it very helpful, they even offer a download of sample-spam which can be used by Mozilla to learn what spam is. http://www.hardtecs4u.com/reviews/2003/mozilla1.3/ I use Mailwasher free edition and it does not filter too much (means some get through).

Hello, i would like to be of help for you, but do not fully get what you mean. Is it a problem being online and get a trojan or is it people leaving their seat and someone sneaks and plays a joke to them?

Hi, i am using norton antivirus since long, didnt have a virus last 3 years. Not even have it running in memory anymore, because it slowed down starting of programs, just use it to check downloaded files.

Daemon Tools mount almost ANYTHING and get freqently updated, they could be used also to satisfy not so well burned backups of game-cds. Here a link:http://www.daemon-tools.net/main.htm

I got a samsung syncmaster 950pplus and it shows on any occasion the actual refreshrate, so this proggi does do the job, at least with my monitor and a geforce3 ti500. AND .... when you play quake I long enough, anyone would notize 60 Hz.

Hey AlecStaar, so you found out how EASY it is to read german, hehe. When you play some opengl game, before for example quake 3 starts, and you are still on the options in the game, you can push the adjustement button on your monitor, and the refresh rate you see then, is the same as during the game itself.

It works on OPENGL from Doom II over Quake I , II and III to Sof2, Moha, whatever uses OPENGL.

After using Raid 0 for years, the maximum was with 4 harddrives, trying almost all different combinations, i came back to disabling Raid alltogether. My impression is that copying files from 1 harddisc to the other is faster then copying from Raid to Raid. (100GB 7200 WD drives) What can mislead is SiSoftSandra, but my personal impression now without Raid is different.

Hi killersheep, i use for the Nvidia 43 driver a tool (freeware) called RatePatch.exe. It even works on Windows 2003 Advanced Server RC2. When this does not work, you might have messed something by editing the original driver. So you MUST first uninstall the Nvidia driver, reinstall the WHQL 43 driver, reboot, use RatePatch.exe, reboot, and then u should be fine.

Maybe because many people started using NT-based system with XP, and left out W2K. XP was and is sold with many new computers, whereas W2K was in this kind of distribution only for a short time.

Even Quake I , Hexen I, Hexen II, Doom II, Heretic I run fine on W2K, not to speak of newer games, the only good one wich causes headache are the Need For Speed Series.

Yeah, You were right, if XP would be any good...hehe!

Hi, i (linuxnewbie) would like to know what distro ( redhat, mandrake, debian , whatever ) supports Audigy 1 right from the start without going through difficult configurations.
