Boom Unreal Tournament & TNT

After installing Win 2K Pro (up from Win 98 1st Ed.) I have a problem with serious lag. When I move my mouse, the game takes a second or two before responding. I have an Asus card with Riva TNT. The website says they are waiting for nVidia to address this. Does anyone have any answers? Pleeeeease?

I had the same problem a long time ago

You MUST, repeat MUST download the most recent nVidia Detonator drivers

Also... you're going to have to play UT in the minimum resolution with all the eye candy turned off in order to get playable framerates. The TNT was a good card to have 4 years ago, but you have to have something faster for today's games.

I think I did get the new drivers. I'll try it again. Thanks. I DO need a new card though.

I could have sworn I got the new drivers. Maybe if I would work on just one machine at a time, my life would be simpler(yeah right). I'll try it again. Thanks. I DO need a new card though.
