Problem with Halflife, G400 and Windows 2000

[jediphoenix]

I am having a problem playing Halflife in windows 2000 pro. I installed the game and also the latest patch, when i play in direct3d the game plays (very fast time wise by the way) but the console "~" is not available and if I hit esc I get no menu but a black screen. If I try opengl I either get a white screen after starting a new game or it locks up at loading. Any ideas? Now as a sidenote I am limited right now to AGP 1x only (bios apeture set to 4 megs because of a problem with my PA-2013 rev 2.0


K6-2 450
128 megs
G400 32 meg SH using 5.03 drivers

The Black Screen menu problem is a problem with Hal-Life. You won't be able to fix it until they release a patch.
