Hae dudes,

Ok I'm having major problems running almost 50% of the games i try to run I recently put together a comp from various bits n pieces ive picked up the specs are -

Abit KR7A-133 motherboard
windows xp
amd 1800xp <1533>
Geforce 4 mx440 drivers 45.23
256 ddr 2100
no soundcard yet <have a soundblaster 5.1 incoming>

the games that arn't running are daoc shrouded isle <loading screen then back to desktop>
vietcong <get loading screen for a few secs the back to desktop>
enter the matrix <loads to menu but when i click to play a new game & choose level I get a white screen>
unreal II i get a crtical error message - conflict desert storm 2 <loads up a few of the intro screens then back to desktop> ;((
Games that work perfectly well <even at high settings> are postal 2 - GTA vice city (( i've tried using various drivers - tinkering with the cmos - agp x1 x2 x4 etc but have had no results (( strangest things is all the games that dont work on this system work on my oldest system -

Gigabyte 7IXE-4 motherboard
windows 98
athlon 850
Voodoo 5500pci
384 sdram pc133
creative awe64 soundcard

I would appreciate any advice from you guys as SI worked perfectly well when i had the mx440 in my above sytem & noe bugger all ;((

p.s I know the mx440 is a crap card but it did run all games when it was in my other system ;\\

Some games won't run if they don't detect any sound hardware.
