P3-500
EPOX 6VBA (apollo pro/132) 132Mb
Dual Boot Windows Me/2000
AGP TNT2 32mb (with Det3 drivers under Me, 3.53 under Win2k)
SB live
Bt 848 TV tuner
Problem
Under Me, AOK-II Conq and Mech3 crash either starting or closing games or between cut scenes and the game.
VCACHE error or VMM errors. Total lockup and restart needed.
- Tried TNT2 drivers from Me CD-ROM and latest Det3 drivers
- Tried loading latest VIA 4in1 chipset drivers
- Tried a few combos of disabling 32bit drivers
- Turned off at BIOS all devices not really needed - onboard sound, spare com ports, LPT ports.
- Tried Mech3 patch 1.2
BTW - a similar prob was happening to Win98SE - thats why I loaded (clean) Win Me.
Also, Win2k does NOT have the same problem - AOKII is fine, Mech3 runs (but cannot see hardware graphics drivers - only s/w renderer)
My 4 year old thinks I need a new PC -
Can anyone help me put here please?
