Any tips to prevent this? It seems to run for a couple minutes then crashes back to windows. I’ve tried disabling the screensaver under the shortcut settings just in case. Any suggestions other than configuring for MS-DOS mode? Assuming I can edit some of the shortcut properties to resolve.

Duke Nukem 3D crashing? How do you have the game configured?

Never needed to use eDuke32 on Windows 9x btw.

Ok. Which sound card are you exactly using?

I know that at least on SB Live! cards it causes crashing and Ken Silverman has a patch for it on his website. Look for "Duke Nukem 3D "echo" crash patch".

Aha! I’m using a SB Live on this rig! Thank you, I’ll check this out.

If you insist on playing Duke3D in Windows 9x then use eduke32 for Win95
eDuke32 for Win95

Does this not support Voodoo cards? It keeps saying "Unsupported OpenGL driver Detected. GL Modes will be unavailable" for me
