Re: NVIDIA TNT2 freezes

When GPL freezes, does you harddrive all of a sudden start acting up for a second? If so, defrag your harddrive and DO NOT let windows manage your virtual memory. Try setting it to about double your physical RAM. kcgenn wrote:

I wish I had a dollar for Every TNT2/GPL post I've read. Nothing personal KC, I'm sure some tnt guys will point you in the right direction. Sounds like you have a non functioning network card and Win9x is stopping every so often to see if the card has been plugged back in. dave henrie > second.

I had this too when I first got GPL. I sorted it out by killing a few files before starting the game. CTRL-ALT-DEL psconv for a start (I'm pretty sure that was the problem with me) and just for good measure I do avconv, reminder, powersave, fastfind, wkcalc (or something similar) and realplay. Runs stutter free now. Kev kcgenn wrote:
