    Anything that uses OGL doesn't for me.
    The only other game I've been playing is UT, which works great up until I exit the game. Then I have to reboot to solve the screen corruption.
    I'm hoping new drivers or a Win2K guru will solve these issues.

      Among the games I have tried, UT and Rally 2000 run great, stable and fast.

      OpenGL games (Q3,Q2, HL) were generally too dark and slower than on Win 98.

      Did not work at all: Driver, GP500, System shock 2.

          Darkness in OpenGL is because hardware gamma is not yet implemented correctly. In Quake 3 you can turn it off by typing "\r_ignorehwgamma 1". This makes it better for most people. Speed right now is slightly slower for most, although I have seen speed increase. UT and Quake 3 run fine for me. Haven't tried much else.

              edzel concerning system shock 2 I noticed this on a site, maybe it will help:

              System Shock 2 (Looking Glass) Yes W2000 09/99
              To install System Shock 2 on your Windows 2000 system, you will need to run the following command (from a DOS window or using the Run Program command): Setup -lgntforce also you need the patch from http://www.lglass.com/cs/shkpatch.exe to fix the incompatibility with the SafeDisk copy protection and the OS.
