I've got Gp2lap and all that, but I don't get any indication of anything
different when I run the game... how can I tell if it is set-up
properly? Both machines have the same set-up...

Don't forget to launch GP2 with the GP2Lap command !!!

I  seem to be able to get the 2 putas  to find each other , but when they both
try to launch one hangs  (locks up)??

I am trying to run it on a o/c celery 333 to 416  and a plain old p75 ,  is it
possible that they go out of sync  b/c  of the huge difference in speed?
