Hi,

I have a K6-3D 300 MHz, 64MB SDRAM system running Win98. Downloaded and
installed the lattest CL TNT driver (dated 18 NOV 98) for my 16MB CL TNT
AGP card, then I have problem launching MS Flight Sim 98. Every time
when launching MSFS98, it pauses (hard disk idle) for 3 minutes after
showing the startup screen. Then it continues and finally finishes the
loading. Then it behaves normally (although the frame rate is slower
than before upgrading the TNT driver). When switching to full-screen
mode (Alt-Enter), it pauses for 3 minutes, when exiting the game, the
pause also lasts for 3 minutes.

I reinstalled the game, reinstalled DirectX6, restore the old driver but
all without success. Is there anyone is having similar problem? Any
solution to this problem? Thanks in advance.

Sam
