Toca2 Demo not running!

Hi all
I've just spent 2 hours downloading the Toca2 Demo & after installing, I try
to run the game & Launcher.exe causes an illegal operation.

My system
PII 300MHz
Intel Chipset
128Meg Ram
DirectX 6
Win98

I've reinstalled DirectX & Toca2 Demo (even tried a different directory)
still no luck!!

Anyone got any ideas!!  (I am desperate!!)

  try 3dnews.com but don't download from the default server, choose one of
the mirror sites.  I got a working copy from an aussie site.

Sorry I can't help you. My demo won't run either. I get the following when I
try to run the demo: "setup unable to find installation language in
C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\TOCA2D~1\setup.LID file"

Sorry gang, I'm sure this has been answered several times, but where is a
good place to get the demo?
Thanks,

Codemasters have it on their web site. Simracing.com also.    Chuck

My brother had this problem too, there was no setup.lid file in said
directory.   If this is the case, the setup.lid file contains the following:

[Languages]
key0=0009
key1=040c
key2=0007
Default=0009
key3=0010
count=5
key4=000a

Hope that helps someone.  I solved the original problem by editing the
Registry & changing the CardHintType(or something like that) from ffffffff
to 00000001 & the game now runs, still can't use the Launcher to set up the
card etc.
