SB Live (value) causes crashes for me in Duke 3D and Blood. Specifically the reverb sound causes a crash. It's a shame because the card can do a lot of other things well.

Wow, I definitely stand corrected on that. Very, very interesting boards.

^Beaten by seconds. The socket 775 boards still using the 865 chip won't take any of the core series cpu's as far as I know. My P4 will never die! Once it gets going. Hopefully. 😕

It's sad, but things have been moving in that direction for a while now. Make them cheap and disposable enough so that most won't bother getting them fixed. Then sell them over and over again to the same people. Very wasteful, but I really don't think these companies care. A full tower with without …

I want to build a very fast Win98 machine. All I have so far is an Intel MicroATX board (D865PESO). I've also got a 3.2ghz Northwood CPU coming in the mail. Unfortunately new aftermarket coolers for socket 478 are hard to find. Is the standard Intel heatsink/fan efficient enough to cool that CPU in …

Shogo is/was awesome! 🤣 I agree with a lot of the ones posted so far. One that I didn't enjoy as much as I expected to was Age of Empires III. I didn't like any of the new additions like the home city which felt very un AOE. AOE2 is easily the best in the series imho.

I got the game running on my 5900 using forceware 41.09. It also worked with 72.something but it was slow and it crashed a lot. Most 5x.xx drivers cause black screen or game fails to start. Cool, I will try 41.09 first. I was planning on using 43.45 cause that was the earliest one to mention …

Your timing on posting this thread couldn't have been better. Just last night I was testing Dungeon Keeper II on my P3 1.4ghz with Geforce 4 TI 4200. I was surprised how poorly it ran. Seemed to be particle effects especially that really dropped the frame rate. I have a FX 5700 on its way to me in …

I use the GF4-ti4200 on my Windows 98 machine. I can only compare it to Voodoo 2 and 3 cards because I don't have any other video hardware old enough. Overall I have been very happy with it. It is powerful enough to run every game that game out until XP was the popular gaming OS. I have however …

I'm with Bucko on this one. There is not going to be a crack for every version of every Safedisc or Securom protected exe ever released. The majority of top/popular games will have lots of choices, the more obscure you go the less thats out there. And just because its listed on some warez pre …

I remember playing the demo of this when it was first released. I bought the retail version in about 2004 was never able to get it working well on any of my machines. On my PIII 1.4 tualatin it runs far too fast. Do others have that problem?
