Make sure that the processor heatsink is seated properly.

That's in System.ini.

Actually, non-Opteron Athlon chips have a tendency to run hot too. At least when OC'ed. This is why people want the Opteron ones. Because they have lower Vcore requirements then the regular ones.

I'm sorry to tell you this, parts of IE are also located in the Windows\System32 directory, just like many applications. To delete IE, you're required to have at least stuff removed from some DLL files in the Windows\System32 directory too! nLite does that.

Was this with most games too? I hope so, because I'm thinking about going back to Windows 98 SE, because there's still a lot of 3rd party software available.

That's what you get for not using a firewall, if you're not using a firewall! Probably an internet virus attack. I can't fully trust a completely stock Windows installation without a firewall, even when Microsoft says that the hotfixes close up the security holes!

Redownload it again. That error message probably is because of a corrupted download. Or even worse, HDD corruption. Did you run Chkdsk?

Actually, it just appears that Internet Explorer don't use much resources, because of the fact that it's integrated into the OS! If you don't use Internet Explorer, it's recommended that you deintegrate Internet Explorer from Windows with 98 Lite (if using Windows 9x) or nLite (if using Windows XP or Windows 2000) and use K-Meleon.

Could also be a bad CPU chip, especially if you built this PC and have done so recently.

First off, that message probably isn't coming from your web browser or anywhere on your end.

What the bleep?! You're saying that it will refuse to play even under Windows 2000? I would understand if the software's from Microsoft. Why would Apple force Windows 2000 users to upgrade to Windows XP?!

Is there any way to get those drivers without downloading a monstrous ISO?

It may be because your processor is malfunctioning. Did you test it with a 24-hour run of Prime95?

The processor probably is overheating! Make sure that the heatsink is seated properly and that the processor fan is working and working properly. Otherwise, it's probably because you're required to get more case fans.

Even when I tested Windows XP before, I can't recall having this problem! It's probably because you didn't do a fresh installation.

Nope. Only required to register it if you have Opera 8.02 or earlier!

That's because DMA isn't supported in DOS-compatibility mode. That means there will be high processor usage for every HDD access and thus most users won't see more than 4 MB/s! If HDD benchmark results are fine, you don't have to worry about this problem. If DMA gets disabled, you would notice right away, because Windows will be slow for even small tasks or when burning a CD, the recording buffer percentage keeps dropping to a real low value.

The nvidia settings are always on application controlled. I run it on 1024x768 with most effects on and settings up 3/4 of max. All other games run perfectly but this struggles. Got latest drivers and card is not overclocked. It's probably because this game is being hard on the video card. You're possibly required to get a later video card again! Maybe it's time to OC it now. At least change the driver settings again. If you really don't want to get another video card or OC the video card you currently have, at least try another driver version.

what DOES happen? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> it starts download index.htm file when i push it, when i give save target as it starts to doenload msfn.htm file This is because of the way the web site was written to prevent leeching. Unfortunately, this causes legitimate people to be unable to download the file with a download manager for resuming the download if you got disconnected in the middle of downloading it. Thus, web sites that have anti-leeching systems are unfriendly to 56k users!

Their "4.2GHz" CPU is just a 3.6 that's been overclocked; I have a P4 HT that's running at 4.17, so 4.2GHz isn't impossible. Their solid-state hard drives are commonly encountered on high-performance servers. Their systems are simply overclocked regular machines with hardware RAM disks and other minor enhancements. It still doesn't justify the price though. The most expensive PC? Then I can get an Athlon 64 FX57 OC'ed to 3.5 ghz! Even at 2.6 ghz, it would likely whoop a Pentium 4 a 4.2 ghz!

But the thing is, I thought that later Windows versions, especially Windows XP were even more pro-Intel! I heard that it's best to use an earlier Windows version for AMD systems!

What about if I did it under a fresh Windows 98 SE installation without DirectX 9. Would I be required to remove DirectX 6.1 by hand or get 98 Lite Pro 4.7?

I thought about that, but then again, aren't all the DirectX files taken straight from the .cab files? The dxsetup.exe file doesn't actually contribute anything, it just does the grunt work, right? I hope.... I'm not sure how DSETUP.dll and dsetup32.dll work into the scheme, though. I'm almost positive that I did at least install DirectX 9.0b successfully. It's probably just DirectX 9.0c that's giving me major problems!

All of the download links are bad! Did the webmaster go AWOL?

Huh ? D. 7-Zip is picky, anyways. It has a tendency to say that an archive isn't supported even when it's a supported archive file. If it's corrupted, instead of showing which part of it's corrupted, it will act like it's not even an archive file at all!
