Who's to say it wasn't under vista?
Regardless, help how you want, I help as I see fit. |

Maybe you could contact the person behind those omegadrive ati drivers, a wizard at modding .infs for drivers from what I've seen, maybe could tell what/why those don't fully work. |

Actually softth works with 2 monitors, have to set either left or right to something like -1 or disabled for it's ID or something. And make sure that on 2 monitors you're using, the center is primary in control panel. Spanning might work, but if you're in vista, the option isn't there Dem Pyros. |

Just a shot in the dark here but: As far as I know a monitor driver is only 1 .inf file so maybe you could copy the .inf from a known working res. gxm install. Uninstall that version. Install latest version of GXM with latest known working video drivers and use the .inf copied instead of one include... |

What's the GXM's purpose anyways? just to pre-edit some games so they support TH or something more? |

Does it matter? the WHQL versions aren't exactly stable or bug free. I even have to un-WHQL em just to install em on my laptop since they rarely bother to add mobile variants of the same chipsets. |

Well, most of my slow downs seem to be text related, so I'll try the font fix. I know this because whenever exp. or quest text or open an interface it slows down quite a bit. Easy to test by toggling the bottom icon bar.
Thanks paddy. |

Performance was identical by smb, ftp and even a local web server. And all pcs are gigabit not 100mbit nics. I've tried all driver revisions I found under xp, all identical in performance. The only thing I found is that some had fewer transmit and/or receive buffer with had a very small impact on tr... |

Can't do that, all my tests so far indicate that if anything is something other then vista performance drops severely. I've tested with linux, xp and vista. Whenever a client or server is something other than vista, transfers cap at about 100mbit speeds. Right now I'm thinking of replacing the stock... |

I found the cause, though the why eludes me. I had chosen 'large fonts' since in 1920x1080 the normal text is tiny. Without it server text is fine. Of course I tried it again after you switched it to chapter 1 so who knows. And it seemed pointless to me, just running round to already killed mobs and... |

I'm in the process of building a file server (no, not that kind, you naughty boy you ;) ). Since I've sworn off SATA drives from lack of solid connectors. I'm stuck using 500gb WD WD5000AAKB drives. I'm aiming for 4TB, 4 times my current capacity. That means I need 8 storage drives, plus the existin... |

When I say 'get' I mean buying a box of a game I now own that even decades from now when the companies servers are dust I can still install from a physical medium and play at my convenience on any pc I own.
Steam is no better than the thousands of viruses on the net as we speak. |

I couldn't install it somewhere else at all. Says I didn't have permission to put it in the games folder where I've installed every other game or demo I have. I had to install it to program files then copy it over and manually reinstall the 2 fonts and it still didn't use them. It fails on 2 points,... |

Yeah it is, even requires a reboot to clear the fonts of use so you can delete them after the game's uninstall fails to do so, both sacred1 and 2 are like that. I applaud their use of built-in windows fonts rather then bitmaps or the likes. But they fail in how they use it. I don't and never will in... |

I found it amusing, mostly because I tried the sacred 1 demo right before. Not only did they fail to make a better game (the graphics are barely a notch above) but they also made an enjoyable one into a tedious battle against a poorly designed camera. It ran great on my rig at 1920x1080 but that's m... |
