I recently killed (on purpose, felt good too) my XP SP1 and installed the win2k. With the same detonators for my GF4 MX the game seems to be having some problems running. I have the same frame rates, from 40 to 60, but the picture seems lagged a bit, like a fast slideshow. Any ideas what could be the problem? I don't have any service packs installed, I'll install the SP4 next week when I get it. Could that be the problem? -- Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups. ICQ: 138579247

Have you installed DirectX & your motherboard drivers? Malc.

Don't have any specific answers, but can attest to running LFS on W2K with no problems at all. Just make sure your DirectX is up- to-date, all drivers up to date. > I don't have any service packs installed, I'll install the SP4 > next week when I get it. Could that be the problem? I believe I am running only SP1 or SP2.. have run Windows Update from time to time but certainly don't think I'm right up to SP4. I really wouldn't think the SP level would have any bearing on gaming performance, though I may be wrong. best of luck! n.

Yes, of course. The latest via 4in1, detonators and DX9. -- Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups. ICQ: 138579247
