That's interesting... not sure what's causing it. Try shutting down all
programs on your computer except for Explorer, Systray, and your Internet
Connection. If it starts up fine, then turn the programs on one by one and
start AW each time to narrow down the list of programs conflicting with AW.

Look at this wing.... We're sooo sorry Internal Affairs that we aren't as
financially well off as you. And in fact, some of us that you are referring
to as children are indeed legal adults in charge of their own monetary
capital and also have things like tuition to take care of? Like me. In
fact, I just upgraded to a 733 mhz processor in February, when it was new on
the shelf in my neck of the woods. So be careful who you insult. You seem
to be awful at that sort of thing.
And figure out what "today's standards" really means. Just because your
friends may waste money on the fastest processors that none of today's
applications take advantage of doesn't mean that slower ones are yesterday's
news.
And just becuase someone has a differing opinion of something than you do
doesn't mean their wrong. Figure it out guys. Come on. Why do I even post
anymore? <ego>Oh.... right. I'm trying to make a difference. *sigh*
Being a leader is so hard these days... </ego> =P

The only problem I have with 3.2 is the FPS hit I took with that new
rendering visibility algorithm thingy of their's where it renders everything
out to 200 meters. I suppose it looked good on paper. But the actual
implementation is just a tad too resource intensive for me. :(
Now... 3DFX's site is now nonexistant because the company was bought out by
Nvidia. So try to locate some drivers there at nvidia.com.

Checked Nvidia. No 3dfx drivers to be found. A simple search for "voodoo
drivers" on Cnet Downloads will have to do folks. It will pull up a 1.05
beta driver. The latest driver I think was 1.07, but I couldn't find it
anywhere.

Yeah... well... I'm just wondering if you can sign up for a trial world and
once that's expired, sign up for a 3d homepage.

I think it's what you didn't do. Unlike previous versions you have to
configure this browser to make it work right. :) Options-->Settings.
Click on the video tab. Switch between those 3 modes and choose the one
that works the best for you. I've found it works quite normally once you
get it properly setup and configured. Even the FPS hit I mentioned earlier
is gone now.

Only because you actually have to do something to get it to work. *shrug*

Hmm... true. But then again, multiple render modes has never been tested in
the field before. There's bound to be some bugs. When Disneyland opened,
nothing worked. There will probably be some patches available in the
future.
