My ugly Halflife:

I installed 2k on a w98 system...sort of.

I added a fresh disk, made my old disk a slave, and installed 2k. Well, my old disk is still my c: drive, even though I no longer boot from it. Since I didn't reformat c:, I still had all my old progs and apps. they all worked (mostly) and there was no confusion about paths becuase they were still on c:\.

so far so good!

Then enters Half life!

I ran half- life from my old install on the c: drive. it asked for my cd-key and then Appeared to run ok.

I say appeared because when i exited, i got a bluescreen and had to reboot.

after the reboot, chkdsk ran for a godawful long time (3 to 4 hours) and when it was done, 70% of the files on my c: drive were truncated to 4k.

yuck!

i reformated c: to ntfs and reinstalled most of the other applications.

will this happen again? i am scared!

is it becuase of my wierd install or is it a half life problem?

any suggestions?

Hey, does anyone have problems with half life in multiplayer? Not during the game but more like when you try to refresh the servers from the multiplayer menu. Somehow it jumps from 2900 servers to 40 and it only refreshes a dozen servers or so. I have patched half life with the latest patches and I am running the Final of Windows 2000 Professional. Any suggestions? Oh and I have a 56k modem.

 

But somehow on NT4.0 I don't get that problem....
