PJ & winXp?!?

[Corak]

and I just bought the upgrade version for 120 dollars, microsoft really pisses me off right now...

It's always a very bad idea to upgrade a Windows OS. Can't you just during installation point it to your original Win98-CD so it just verifies the older installation media?

I think it might have something to do with the SD-RAM actually.

 

[Rasmus]

no no no, it's nothing to do with sd-ram, cause there were no problems in 98 and it's almost only Turok that freezes....

 

[Lachp30]

Yeh...but XP uses 50billion times more RAM than 98 uses

I don't think it's the ram, I've only got 256mb and I have no trouble running PJ64.

You can

Hi,


256 mb Ram is plenty enough to run XP and use PJ64 (although obviously more is better)

As for the upgrade, there are numerous posts on computing.net concerning problems after using the upgrade and not a full install, so this could well be the cause of some (if not all) of your problems.

Good luck

 

[Rasmus]

ok, thanks everyone, but why is it only Turok that freezes frequently?

 

[Rasmus]

I also heard that some other guy had problems with a "known freeze issue on level 4", could it be an emulator bug??

my freezes are on level 3 though, not at all on level 1 & 2 ?!?

Rasmus, i dont think its ur hardware, i have the exact same specs ('cept i have a Radeon) and i am using pj64 with no problems. i dont have turok1 but i did test turok 2...no problems.

 

[Rasmus]

where can I get the shit cracked?:devil: ??

All you have to do is reinstall windows and select full not updgrade. It will format your hard drive and no longer give you problems. When I upgraded form ME I had tons of problems but once I did a clean install every thing was fine.

ok i get the picture...
