Commandos: BEL

Bigface
I have just recently installed Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines on my computer that has Windows XP. It was successfully installed, but it runs too fast for me. Is there anyway to slow down what I assume is a fast frame rate? Any news would be great.

Installing Windows 2000 on a newly Fdisk'ed Hard Drive

m_phoenix83
Hey all. Getting sick of Windows 98, so i've decided to go for Windows 2000 Professional, (which I will then upgrade to SP4, possibly via Slipstreaming). My PC is not up to XP minimum specs. I have created the Windows 2000 book disks and they worked fine, and I launched the Win 2000 Setup.

Windows installed on Drive F.

Arin
I built one of those silly shuttle computers for my cousin. There is no floppy drive and I am connecting the hardrive via SATA. The mouse and keyboard are bluetooth. First problem upon boot is that the mouse and keyboard are bluetooth so I have to get replacements for installing everything.
