I just got GeForce4 - 8X Ti4200 Ver.1.0. It's a weird one, has 2 VGA ports, S-out and AV-out ports. I'm going to put it into my nforce2 AthlonXP rig for now. What drivers version would you recommend ? Nvidia official website the oldest available are for GeForce5 FX series and up. Also when you run …

I got a combo (Athlon 1.1Ghz) along with nice 4:3 LCD monitor for about $20. Its specs are all over the place (different RAM modules), probably previous owner was leaving some old parts and adding new ones along the way, but I cleaned it up and installed XP SP2 on it and works great. MOBO: Asus …

I'm going through a process of archiving my old games to a) image file b) 1:1 cd copy. For the a) a use ImgBurn and for the b) clonecd. Now, I have noticed making a copy of games like Quake/Hexen (that have CD audio tracks), a new CD with audio tracks have occasional clicking and artifacts (when I …

I tried Winquake with said parameter but it gives some red glitches and visual artifacts. Anyways I'm playing GLQuake... only to find out that CD music doesn't loop. Uncle google says it's an issue with modern OS. What a bummer.

Why not use one of the newer source ports? They won't have problems like that and there's a few of them that are very authentic to the original experience. Yes, I probably could. Bot not sure how would that work in terms of performance. See the specs of my system in the reply above. Also I really …

Does enabling vsync in your video driver work? Don't know what system you're playing on or graphics card, but lots of drivers let you have per-game config settings. Thanks for the hint. I enabled "vsync" in the properties of my video driver and it did the trick. Now I can play it with 60 fps. …

I want to replay Quake. It has been a very long time. Surprisingly under DOSBox the game is very demanding. In 640x480 I get 12 - 15 fps. This is unplayable. So I looked for the two of the oldest ports WinQuake and GLQuake. With WinQuake I also get crappy framerate around 17fps (640x480). In GLQuake …

Sorry for resurrecting an old thread but I have the same exact problem right now. I just finished Duke Nukem 3d (v1.3D) and wanted to install Plutonium Pak add-on in order to play "The Birth" episode. Installation of the patch fails. Is there an SVN build that would preserve timestamps? Or maybe a …

Thanks guys for the hints. I've downloaded the lag of the plain SVN build and the game works like a charm now. I just found an old compilation CD with shareware shooters and wanted to give some of those games a try. Never played SW before. Really cool game. Next in line - Blood.

I'm having issues to run SW shareware. Upon start it gives the fallowing errors. (see attachment). I've found similar errors in this thread: http://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=43961 I've tried mounting the game directory as the root directory but with no luck. Any ideas how to get the game …

I have a copy of HOM&M2 in MDF/MDS format. From my understanding this specific format is a full image with support of red book audio (like BIN/CUE). After mounting this image in Windows with Daemon Tools and using DOSBox game installs and run fine but I have no music (no audio CD tracks). I use [ …
