Koz-Ivan. Win-Me is an extension of Win '98: it should run flawlessly. Win2K was SUPPOSED to be called NT 5.0, but MS delayed so long they decided "what the heck!" and named it Win2k.
So, you're experience is no surprise. But I need to know how/does it run on an NT based system. |

I don't have Windows 2K, but from the reading I've done on this board and about Windows, you may have problems depending on the type of video card you have in your system. Windows2K video drivers are not usually designed for gamers. If you're lucky, you might be able to download updated video drivers from the video card manufacturer's website.
I don't know of any specific problems with BG2 though. |
