Differences with Reactor?????

by Mike Marshal » Sun, 29 Dec 1996 04:00:00

I just installed the Reactor and am enjoying the the improved N2 and
ICR2.  I have a p133 w/ 48m of edo ram.

One thing I noticed is that when you go to the screen with your car in
the garage (N2), the mouse pointer seems to slow way down.  It skips
across the screen if you move it quickly.  The other screens in N2 don't
seem to be affected in the same way.  Is anyone else having this
problem?

Also, what do I need to do to get the newest drivers and bios flash
etc.?  I downloaded the newest wn951113.zip and installed that.  What
else do I need to do?  How do I tell if I need to do the bios flash,
etc.?

Thanks for your help,
Mike

I'm not sure why the mouse slows down, but it seems to do it for
everyone.  If you don't have a lot of lockups (monitor powering down)
then you don't need the new BIOS, but you could install it if you want.

Yeah I get the same slowdown of the mouse on the pit screen...supposedly
Win95 drivers work best with Nascar2.

     I have this problem, too, however I also had it with my Stealth and
not just Reactor. This seems to be a problem everyone is having and not
just owners of the Reactor.
