I am keeping a dual boot to Win98SE for games, but I would like to be able to play many of them in WIn2K. I tried installing Rally Champ, and it looked fine, but wouldn't recognize my MSFF. Win2K has built in support for the wheel, but it has no profiler or anything like that and the MS website even says the wheel is unsupported. Anyone have any idea on support for the MSFF in Win2K? ~daxe

Anyone got it to work? Last I heard the 3d drivers for the banshee were TBA, but I haven't been able to find any info on it since. I'm waiting for the 3d, so I can reinstall 2000.. I had to pull it becuase of no GPL... Anyone know or done it? Scooter (formerly SpeedRacer)
What sort of compatability with sims will u get with win2k. I foolishly installed it first without asking this question, and have found none of my sims work. Any help would be appreciated. Regards, Luke

Sports Car GT installs and works fine in Win2k. I suspect well designed sims and games that support DirectX 7 will work. =rez=
Which ones have you not got working? N3, GPL, SCGT, F1RS, MGPRS2 all work OK. Iain

I looked there the same day I asked this question but couldn't find it. Of course, that doesn't mean it isn't there. Microsoft's website is such a maze I'm suprised you can find anything there. Thanks. ~daxe
