I am new to this so sorry if this is a newby question. I have N3, Win 98, Pentium III 550, Voodoo 3 2000 and Thrustmaster NASCAR Pro. My problem is that under either 3DFX or Direct 3D the video will freeze while the internal action of the game continues. By the time the video catches up I am usually crashed. Do I need to change a BIOS setting or what do you think. Thanks in advance,

Look in Start | Settings | Control Panel | Power Management and you will find the area that deals with this. ~daxe -----------== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News ==---------- http://www.newsfeeds.com The Largest Usenet Servers in the World! ------== Over 73,000 Newsgroups - Including Dedicated Binaries Servers ==-----
