When there is a way to fix it, please post it here for all to read.
Thanks,

Listen, the way you played last night, I'm not buying it. Ben the one man army!

Updated to the win98 Nvidia 77.72 drivers. No effect. Still get:

i used the beta driver.....http://www.nzone.com/object/nzone_do..._2k_78.05.html see if that works, and uninstall your drivers first....if all that dont work maybe u need to do a driver cleaner and try again

**Vulcan** · 10-01-2005, 09:28 AM

Oh your on windows 98, no wonder. I suggest you reinstall your OS every error you get till you upgrade to win2k/xp or linux. :P

Hey, I wouldn't mind not having to swap out my Gentoo hard drive for the win98 hard drive every time I wanted to play something. I haven't really messed with wine lately. You Linux HL2 guys use Transgaming, or can you point me to a place with good comprehensive instructions?

I don't think I've posted this problem in the thread, but there's another annoying problem I've had since the last update - certain objects are invisible until I get closer to them. Objects such as crates, boxes, filing cabinets, windows, etc. In other words, I can't see them until I draw closer to them, then they finally appear. It's almost like I have a wallhack at times because I can see targets behind or through these objects.

Now I do have an Nvidia card but I don't know if that's the problem, beings that it's not exactly 'new'...Geforce 2 Ultra.

I imagine this could be something simple like a quick command in the console fix, but I don't know. Anyone have any ideas?

Ferret · 10-02-2005, 12:53 AM

I finally got that issue fixed with a little help from the steampowered forums. If anyone else is having this problem (I think I heard one other person saying they did, don't remember who though), here's a link that should help you out...

It looks to be a problem for people with older video cards. A quick simple fix none the less though.

Worked fine yesterday. I interrupted the update today, and nothing Source wants to boot (but HL does work). Double-click in Steam, "Preparing to play Half-Life 2", clunk, "This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down" >> details: HL2 caused an invalid page fault in module FILESYSTEM_STEAM.DLL at *** registers ******.

I am also on a win98 athlon 1.5ghz... And yep getting the same messege as you and as usual no care from valve..I am starting to think maybe they dont want anymore win98 users in this game anymore..

shroompicker · 10-02-2005, 11:37 PM

I'm starting to think they took the concept of HL:Lost Coast, where they ask themselves, "what if we weren't constrained by PC limitations", a little too far, actually making the whole engine fully non-backwards compatible with anything under 2.4GHz/1G-RAM.

Transgaming has some good directions themselves on getting Steam and the attendant apps running. Point2play is a big help...I think both are in the gentoo repository, but I'm not sure.

I'm going to put Cedega 4.4.1 on a hacked MEPIS (TacticalOS base), I could post some step-by-step directions over on the TacticalOS blog if you like.

shroompicker · 10-05-2005, 01:45 PM

WHOA! emerge -s steam reveals a result, games-server/halflife-steam!

cedega and point2play are manual-fetch. I'll have to mess with that later.

shroompicker · 10-07-2005, 09:15 PM

WOOHOO

Steam Support just sent me a message, they fixed the Win98 .dll problem.

Sure enough, it works! Back to my win98 gaming hard drive I go!

While I wait for Dystopia 2 to download, I think I'll write to the forum there....

BTW, Mateo, don't give up on my doing Steam in Linux. I did emerge those packages, just haven't tried them out yet.
