Okay, I am having lots of problems with running older games on WindowsXP. I have WinXP Pro, AMD Duron 600, 384 MB Ram, Asus v7100 with Video Out (Geforce2 MX 32MB), SBLive Value, Gigabyte Motherboard (VIA Chipset). I am using all the newsest drivers such as SB Live drivers (from windowsupdate) and Nvidia Detonator 23.11.
Now the problem, many of my older games do not work properly under windows xp. They all worked before I upgraded. I have tried using every different compatibility options for the games and none of them work. What happens with the games is this: They start to load up, screen goes black, then i get kicked to windowsXP but the games are still loaded in the taskbar, and in some I can hear the intro music playing. I then click on the game in the taskbar and again the screen refreshes to black, stays like that for about 10 seconds, then i go back to windowsXP with the games still in taskbar... and so the cycle continues.
The following games DO work:
Red Faction
Counter-Strike (MOD version)
The following games DO NOT work:
Baldur's Gate 2
Metal Gear Solid Demo
Worms World Party
NHL 2002
Madden 2002
Please Help
Thanks
