nekrosoft13 Posted March 23, 2002 Share Posted March 23, 2002 i hate ms tech support!!!!!!!! there is just no way to send a e-mail, and i can find anything. i need help to get the metal gear solid pc work correctly the problem is when i'm under water the, the sound breaks up, and the game goes to about 4-5 frames per sec. this started to happen with the 27.xx and 28.xx detonator drivers, and stupid microsoft won't release a patch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krome Posted March 23, 2002 Share Posted March 23, 2002 uh oh.. maybe it's because of that Nullsoft Beep thingy? :) just guessing... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PM5K Posted March 23, 2002 Share Posted March 23, 2002 Just use older Dets, sounds like it's the fault of nVidia, not Microsoft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekrosoft13 Posted March 23, 2002 Author Share Posted March 23, 2002 but the new ones are faster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PM5K Posted March 23, 2002 Share Posted March 23, 2002 That's great then, but don't blame your problem on Microsoft when it's obviously the fault of nVidia and their newer drivers. That's what you get when you use unsupported beta drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekrosoft13 Posted March 23, 2002 Author Share Posted March 23, 2002 i'm using the 28.32 and the point is that you can even get in touch with ms about this problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PM5K Posted March 23, 2002 Share Posted March 23, 2002 Why would you even want to get in touch with them, they aren't the problem, if the game worked fine before then it's nVidias problem, so contact them, or your card maker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
configure Veteran Posted March 23, 2002 Veteran Share Posted March 23, 2002 the point is that you can even get in touch with ms about this problem I would imagine that they're providing technical support to a large number of people so any problem that isn't Window's or their product's, they would just ignore it.

Geronimo Posted March 23, 2002 Share Posted March 23, 2002 Have you tried searching Technet. If you can not find it there, they will only help you by charging you money and over the phone. They are a company with a wide line of products. They have created a large knowledge base. It is not like Nullsoft or these other software venders that have a support email.

Steven P. Administrators Posted March 23, 2002 Administrators Share Posted March 23, 2002 nekrosoft13: before I start your PC kicks BUTT! but I'm afraid the issue here is the drivers (nvidia). Everyone else back off, this guy is obviously distressed. help or stay quiet please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nXP_151 Veteran Posted March 23, 2002 Veteran Share Posted March 23, 2002 Basically you need to call Nvidia support for this, or email them. Maybe rolling back the driver into the original state will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Dorr Veteran Posted March 23, 2002 Veteran Share Posted March 23, 2002 Originally posted by nekrosoft13 but the new ones are faster by like 2-3% I think a 3% reduction in frame rate but being able to PLAY the game can justify rolling back...
