Just put the 3dfxvgl.dll in and there's no need to rename it. As for half life, I constantly get a ping of over 500 on TFC and that is really annoying for a sniper so I have to change to one of the attackers which I don't like. Quake3 though, I got a ping of 200 and never over 250 last night and the server had about 8 on, it was running alright. I'm on a P233MMX by the way. -- From Nigel Tsang ntsang@eidosnet.co.uk HappyDude <ericross@CHRONICearthlink.net> wrote in message news:7hleu4$dd$1@ash.prod.itd.earthlink.net... > 1.
