Hello! How are you doing, guys?
I've just completed a win98SE build with spare parts i've found. Its specs:
- ASUS P4S800 mobo (LGA478)
- Celeron D 315 (2,26 Ghz)
- Ram: 256 Mb
- Generic soundcard (Crystal CS4280)
- Fx5200 agp - 128mb
I tested some games with this machine and many of them run perfectly well (unreal gold, unreal tournament 99, ToCA2, Delta Force 2, Ignition,AoE2,...).
However, when I installed NFS III and NFS - High Stakes, I had some strange problems with my keyboard. If I try them in software mode, I can play without any problems. But when I try to use Direct X mode, my keyboard inputs hangs here and there. I can't navigate the menu, control the car, or even pause and exit the game. Caps Lock, Num Lock and Scroll Lock also do not work when the inputs are locked (the keyboard LEDs do not turn on/off).
I've already tried using the Modern Patch for both games, but without success.
What could it be? What could I do to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
