The VMM.DSD/.VXD are never replaced by a video card. The VMM are only files
which control the movement of virual memory in Windows. They also control
the flow and allotment of memory for the AGP slot and the PCI/DIMM/SIMM
bridge. The VMM would have no affect on speed.
To resolve the problem I would do this.
TOTALLY uninstall drivers.
1. Go into the Add/remove Programs and remove anything creative
might have put there
2. Look for nv3.dll or files of this sort in the windows/system/
directory.
3. Go into Windows/ and run REGEDIT.exe and find anything that says
Creative Labs, or Nvidia. Do a fine for any key words. Remove any
instances.
If you do not feel you can do that. i would load Nvidia's reference
drivers, they can be found at www.nvidia.com they are usually the best
drivers around, better than peticular card drivers. All video cards only
replace a few files and make entries into the registry. The only files that
they usually touch are specific drivers files nv3.ogl, opengl.dll, things of
the DLL nature. They never replace any OS files or system specific files.
Again, the OS you are running can be a big part of your problems. I have
found certain OS's do not like certain cards. New OS's do not like old net
cards/video cards. 98Se HATES old 3 com cards, and other ISA net cards, it
is impossible to get them running sometimes. The only versions of windows I
recommend are OSR2.1 (b, second version), OSR2 (B), win98, win98SE. B is
sometimes flakey, C is the worst Win95...its a bastard OS. A is marginally
better. Both have MANY problems.
Again, if you want to be helped, ALL system info is needed.
