Colin Mcrae Problem

Hi,

I have a PII 450 with a Diamond Monster II card. With my Monster I
card I had no problems running Colin. But with my monster II, the
graphics are all messed up. The game works, but all the textures are
grey so I can't see where I'm driving.
Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Andre

I had this problem with my righteous 3d2 cards in sli, de-installed the
drivers re-installed dx6,reinstalled drivers and all was fine.

I had this problem even after using the patch, and had to reinstall
drivers and dx6

? It worked for me with with M3D 2 12MB SLI, drivers 207, DirectX6.1.
The only other problem I had was with some sounds not heard, and jumping back to the desktop after the intro video. This was after
installing the TOCA 2 demo. To fix this, copy the file "qmixer.dll" from the CD and place it in the CMR directory.
