    I had np with playing games on XP apart from C/S. However that was Video card related.

    that's the reason I don't use 2K anymore, cuz EA didn't program for it.

    XP has weird mouse acceleration problems in C/S and other Q2 engine based games. I am sure you can find a 1000 references to the same problem. Impossible to aim, period. <IMG SRC="smileys/puke.gif">

    <IMG SRC="smileys/eek.gif"> Well, I love Win2K, but I'm also a sucker for the "latest and greatest". I wanted to make sure I wasn't gonna miss out on anything with XP. <IMG SRC="smileys/puke.gif">

    I too have winxp. I play ea sports triple play with no problems and a couple other games. Also, HL and CS both run fine on my machine. Might want to look a little further than the OS...<br><br><i>This message was edited by effenjee on 12 Oct 2001 01:01 PM</i>
