Thanks for the input. Someone in the Sierra boards suggested just copying
the old glide2x and glide3x dlls into the GPL directory, and now it runs
again. I'll probably keep running that way for now, since it works, but I
do plan on updating to 6.1 (I'm running 6.0 now as well). I'm just glad to
be able to play GPL again. And with my new PC, I can actually race the
whole field (not that I see them much).
Thanks!
Dave
