For what it's worth:

last night I finally got fed up with not being able to run OpenGL GPL
without the blinking mirror and/or blinking screen problem on my TNT2.  (Yes
I've tried tweaking the opengl variables in the core.ini file)  Since I am
using Win2000 RC3 at work, I decided to install it, install the 3.56 nvidia
drivers with the working nvogl.dll file, and give GPL a shot.  To my
amazement, GPL ran fine in OpenGL 1024x768!  I was even surprised that Win2k
recognized, and installed a driver for my LWFF as well (albeit no force
feedback)  Now if I could just find a workaround to get the LWFF software to
install and not tell me I need Win95 or Win98.........

I assume that the mirrors still don't work properly ?

No, everything works fine!  I apologize if I wasn't clear, but other than
not having any Force Feedback, everything works perfect in opengl

I don't have that file, but I do have a lwusbhid.inf file?

According to the WingmanTeam, W2K RC2/3 supports LWFF on the USB, it
needs the lwusbhid.sys file, which suppose to ship with W2K, but I
can't find it on my CD-ROM or HD... If you have a copy of the file, you
may want to give it a try, and send me a copy while you are at it!
