KillerCow 0 Posted January 14, 2001 i have two systems running Win2k, one is a p3 the other is an athlon. When ever i play a game, well a D3D game(i haven't used openGL in a while), within the first minute of play it will freeze for about 10 - 15 seconds then it will run without problems. The only common thing between the two computers is the Live! card. i'm running dx 7 on one, and 8 on the other. one computer has sp-1 on it, the other does not. the two video cards are a Geforce DDR, and a Matrox G400 i believe. Anyway it seems to me a common problem for me, i know 3 computers running win2k and they all have this problem. anywa thanks fot the help. --Kc-- Share this post Link to post

Operator 0 Posted January 16, 2001 If you're talking about games which use the Unreal Tournament engine I have a suggestion: Get more RAM. UT, The Fallen, Deus Ex ... any game that utilized the UT Engine caused a problem similar to the one you mentioned on my computer. After my upgrade to 256 MB I didn't encounter this problem anymore ... ------------------ 4C69 7665 204C 6F6E 6720 416E 6420 5072 6F73 7065 7220 2D20 4A65 6E73 2053 2E20 4461 686D 656E "What doesn't exist we must sometimes dream - and let our dreams inspire us to greater heights ..."

Fanimin 0 Posted January 17, 2001 Well, several of my friends and I have the same problem. The problem from what we can tell is the SB Live. Because other systems with Diamond sound cards or AWE64s aren't having the problem. Lets hope that Creative comes out with some new drivers soon *HINT HINT* Share this post Link to post
