games freeze for a couple seconds.
i have two systems running Win2k, one is a p3 the other is an athlon. When ever i play a game, well a D3D game(i haven't used openGL in a while), within the first minute of play it will freeze for about 10 - 15 seconds then it will run without problems.

The only common thing between the two computers is the Live! card. i'm running dx 7 on one, and 8 on the other. one computer has sp-1 on it, the other does not. the two video cards are a Geforce DDR, and a Matrox G400 i believe. Anyway it seems to me a common problem for me, i know 3 computers running win2k and they all have this problem. anywa thanks fot the help.

If you're talking about games which use the Unreal Tournament engine I have a suggestion: Get more RAM. UT, The Fallen, Deus Ex ... any game that utilized the UT Engine caused a problem similar to the one you mentioned on my computer. After my upgrade to 256 MB I didn't encounter this problem anymore ...
