    Vortex2 and Conflict freespace

    Hi
    I have lockups after the intro in Conflict freespace making it impossible even to get started with the game. I think someone has posted that this is a vortex2 problem (I have Xitel storm platinum). Anyone know the solution to this? I have tried to update to v. 1.06 but it keeps giving me error messages. I had the same problem with my old graphic cards (s3virge+Vodoo2)

    Specs:C366@413,458, 128mb samsung pc100ram, Quantum ex 10.2 gb, nec 40xcd, Yamaha 4416 cdrw(ide), Xitel storm platinum (with original drivers), MSi 6163,and G400 sh 16 mb with 5.21 drivers (o/c:d to 147/196)

      Thanks
      I have just downloaded the latest Xitel drivers(yes they are finally released). I will try them. Have you played Conflict freespace yourself with your current setup?

        Well, here I am talking to myself again. I finally managed to solve the problem. As usual(?) the solution is so basic that you wouldn't even consider it: I had to disable my antivirus program (Trend pcillinn 98), which otherwise is running in the background. I think it the game loads a bit snappier if I also disable my softcooler program. Still none of the other games I have tried has had this problem.
