Viper Racing Lockups ???

by Fred » Wed, 02 Dec 1998 04:00:00

I am having problems with Viper Racing locking up the screen at random
intervals while playing, the game (sound anyway) continues on in the
background but the screen locks and I have to do the 3 finger salute to get
things working again.

I have and AMD K6-2 300 64 MByte 100 Mhz DRAM and Monster Voodoo2 12 Meg: I
have tried all of the different Drivers from 3Dfx and Diamond with no
effect.

This is really spoiling a brilliant game, can anyone give some ideas on
where to look next ???

Thanks

Did you overclock your V2 ?

The same thing happens  to me, but only when the Force RS is hooked up.  It
hasn't happened since I disconnected it.  It also caused the sound to drop
out in F1RS.

I underclocked mine down to the lowest setting, and all that lockup
stuff went away.

Didn't loose much performance.  By using DirectX 6, and the beta Direct
6 3dfx drivers (which some say will cause blue triangles on the track
surface - oddly enough, it SOLVED that problem for me :)  ), I jumped
from 41 fps to 51fps!
