Im predominately a FLY! fan, but...I do fly MSFS2K for the ZONE.COM vitual airline operations over multiplayer. Also Im diggin the Bell Jet Helicopter. However, every since I got my Creative Labs Annihilator Pro DDR 32mb 3D video card - MSFS2K runs a minute or two then page faults EVERY TIME!!! Ive tried everything from drivers to hardware config setting to game graphics options to killing all processes but the sim and Explorer under Win98. Ive tried the MSFS2K hotline, still no good. They couldnt figure it out. So I grabbed my wife's Voodoo3 from her computer, and now MSFS2K runs like a champ. This is with the latest MSFS2K 2nd release of the 2nd and final patch. Which leads me to believe that MSFS2K does not run with the latest CL drivers for thier Annihilator Pro video card. I have tried the latest Nvidia GeForce drivers for Win98, but they were older than my CL drivers (driver dated 2-22-00). Does anyone know any different? If you do, Id like to know what drivers youre using and what not. AV8R

I'm not sure if previous patch was incorporated in this second one. The first patch corrected big bug in rendering the artificial horizont, which caused big stops every few seconds.try clean install and apply first patch only and see the difference. Another good thing to try is small program called cacheman (http://www.outertech.com). It has helped me to gain stedy 30-40 fps on my G400. good luck Dali

Dali,Im using Cacheman now. Seems like the problem is two fold. My CPU box was too hot, plus cacheman seems to have improved things. Thank you for caring enough to help I can now fly MSFS2K because of YOU. AV8R
