System: Athlon 2200+, 1.25GB RAM, Win2k w/SP4, DX 9.0b.
Video: NVidia GF6600, 256MB RAM.
Here's the situation:
Due to a botched FreeBSD install (ah, the joy of trying to boot off a 250GB drive on a system dating back to '99), I had to reinstall Win2k to try and fix the install that already existed (for whatever reason, I couldn't get the damn thing to fix the MBR from the Recovery Console).
I've managed to get everything reasonably close to how it was before the reinstall, with one problem:
Whenever I try to start FFXI, it'll go to the black screen (so it's switching modes properly), then occasionally go to a white screen, and then everything POL-related just quits, and I'm back to Windows.
I'm kinda getting frustrated, as it's getting on time to feed my saplings another crystal...
