Will ICR2 run on my pc? I have a 486/33 w/ 8 megs of RAM. I don't know
if its a 486SX or DX, I couldn't find it in the manuals. It's a Compaq
Presario w/ a Pentium Processor.
Thanx!

As far as I know, you can expect a slide show on your 486/33 even under
VGA with all details turned off. I red in a german PC magazine, that
Goeff Crammond is rewriting the program, so that it is playable on a DX2/66.
That`s all I know
Greeting Mike!
yeah, i figured that out... is the Overdrive my best bet for a cheap
upgrade? i've heard it is and it isn't worth the money... thanx!

I goofed, it's a 486/33. I'm gonna get the Pentium Overdrive Processor
to take it up to 83 mHz though...

Well, I have a 386DX/33 motherboard with a Cyrix 486/66 chip. If I turn
everything off, have Objects to off (not no objects, just objects with no
texture) and put Smoke/Dirt on Auto I can get a decent frame rate
drawing 4 in front and 2 behind. I can even play at SVGA, but only if I
have EVERYthing turned off and only one opponent.
I don't think you will have a problem, but a real Pentium motherboard may
be equal or less cost than the Overdrive chip. If I were you, I would
investigate the price difference as the full blown Pentium motherboard
will out run the overdrive chip upgrade.
The 'look' is of course just an opinion. I might think it is ok, but
you may think it is awful. If you mean can you run SVGA with full
details, then the answer is no. If you mean will the upgrade improve the
frame rate, the answer is absolutely.

I, too, have a Pentium 120 with a Diamond Stealth card and I can get full
svga. My Stealth has 2megs, and the Pentium 16megs. Maybe that's the
difference.
Kamikaze
I have a Pentium 120, 16 Megs of Ram, and an ATI Mach 64 with 2 Megs VRAM
and I run at SVGA, full detail with maximun sound and car visibility, all
without using the UniVibe driver as the one coded into the came is
incompatible with the ATI.

Maybe you two have different personal requirements for frames per second. I
like more frames even at the expense of detail.
