If you have a good machine, RAM and disk space, I would suggest getting away from Win-2K and definitely going with XP. You can establish another partition and format for FAT32, then load Win-98 into that area. Either have a dual boot setup or use a VM environment. As to the problem with the newer nVidia card, see if you can get hold of an old Win-98 Boot disk and see what happens when you run FractInt from that when you choose the DOS mode. You can get all the files that come on the distributed Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition Boot Disk from the following location. They are in a ZIP file and must be extracted to a floppy: http://www.Nahee.com/Software/ Look for a file called "Win98-SE_Boot.zip". You may wish to look into running the "MAKEFCFG.EXE" program to see if that will create the correct configurations needed for your system. That program reads VESA Video BIOS and writes the "FRACTINT.CFG" file with VESA video modes.
