I have a similar setup, also running Win2K. If you have turned off the "all
screens same res"
button, and try to switch to full screen, the game will crash back to the
desktop.
Under Win2k with my GeForce, I am forced to leave "all screens same res" on,
and
have the tiny interface screen, when accessing my inventory, etc. Hope this
helps.

Other than this problem, the game has worked absolutely perfectly on my
PIII 800, 256MB RAM, GeForce 32MB, and SBLive.
I've been playing every day for a month, and have only had it crash to the
desktop
twice. Both if these were while zoning.

And since I'm running Win2K, I haven't
shut down or rebooted my PC in over 2 months. Very, very nice.
