Hi,

Does anyone else have the problem where NFS3 crashes out.

I get the dreaded Windows 95 blue screen.
        press a key - nowt (Yorkshire for nothing) happens
        press Cntrl-Alt-Del - blue screen again
        press Cntrl-Alt-Del - blue screen again
        press Cntrl-Alt-Del  - hangs on a black screen

Can anyone help please ?

Many thanks

Matthew

Which clearly indicates a hardware/driver conflict.  Could be anything
from your CD-ROM driver to your primary video driver to your version
of Glide (if you run a Voodoo card).   It might help to list your
system specs.  And make sure you have all the latest DirectX-certified
drivers for your hardware, of course.

Does it crash when its trying to load a track or right at the
beginning when you first load?

Get Antiviral toolkit pro, (www.avp.com). I had exactly the same problem,
Even after I formatted and re-installed my whole system. It turns out the
problem was the WIN95.CIH Virus
