Problems with Win2000
A few days ago I removed my old mobo (Jamicon A586B, or it might also have been SuperPower A586B) and put in a newer mobo with exactly same chipset as the old one. The old one had problems with my G450 so my only option was to get a better one. Both had ALi Aladdin V chipset (though old one had M1543 and the newer had M1543-C, which might cause this problem...). I didn't reinstall Win2000, and everything worked fine. The problems started when I reinstalled Win2000. Now no game which uses DirectX doesn't work properly; they are all too fast (yet they say they draw only 8 fps or so). It seems to me that there's some kind of a problem with timing. Wintune says I have only 450 MIPS, but if I run it in Win98, I suddenly have 900+ MIPS. Same with games. They run extremely well in Win98, but too fast (and slow 
) in Win2000. Is there a fix to this problem or do I have to play in Win98 and do my work in Win2000 (switching OS's gets too darn difficult in the long run!).
