To make sure that when you installed the game it recognised your 3Dfx
card, when the game starts ensure that it runs the f1voo.exe file and
no other file?
Sometimes f1rs can move two important files during the istall process,
and this means it cannot *see* your 3Dfx card? check your
windows/system directory for Glide.dll & sst1init.dll. If they are
there then fine, if they are not, copy them from your original f1rs cd
to the windows/system directory and f1rs will now be able to see your
3Dfx card ok.
Also make sure the UBI.INI file in your \windows\ubisoft directory is
set to "3dfx=1" to get the 3Dfx version running.
