gfx\vgui\fonts\640_OverwatchScheme.tga
whats that?
Reboot = Nonvisable BSoD (I assume 98 has something like this probably), or possible over heat of the CPU (I doubt this)
general solution to BSoD - Update all your drivers
Graphical errors?
Your running NS in software mode, arn't you? if so NS does not support software mode, run in OGL, don't bother with D3D (you might be running in D3D not software actualy, wither way switch to OGL)
if these are
if that is the problem (the font im missing) can someone pls send it to me? il give u msn or summin.
ta, i REALLY need it (if its the prob)
update drivers??
Hardware that could need it:
GFX Card
Sound Card
Mother Board
Those are often the culprits
ta trying now
i know i got a Nvidia card..but dont know what it is lol
Hardware tab --> devicemanager:
display adapter
Sound, video and game controllers
didnt work, i to the point where the console came up(like an inch up) then it froze and had to restart. Well for my drivers:
Display adapter: NVIDIA Vanta\Vanta LT
Sound video and game controllers:
Magic 3D II Win95\98 D 3D & Glide Ver.2.1
Magic Sound Gameport Interface
Magic Sound MPU-401 Interface
Magic Sound PCI Audio
Magic Sound Sound Blaster Pro Emulation
Wave Device for Voice Modem
And in the hardware tab, i just had a thing that said original configuration.
Are these the things i need to update? and where do i get them?
any clues?
still doesnt work...
