GP4 problems

by FrankPa » Fri, 16 Jan 2004 06:53:02

Help!!!!
I've just installed GP4 on my PC with this Hardware:
Athlon XP 2000+, Sk.Video GeForce4 MX440 64MB DDR (latest
nVidia Driver+ DirectX 9), 512 Mb RAM...
It'terribly slow:the tragedy is that accidentally I pressed the 'o'
key in order to check CPU occupancy and I realized that the game
speeds up very fast even at 1024x768 resolution at 26 fps (the same
happens for any key that I strike except those needed for the game
i.e.:a z , . ; mouse wheel included ). Who can give me a suggestion on
what's going on ? I'm very upset for this: I've also bought MS
steering wheel to enjoy GP4 properly !!!!
Thanks
Andre

Your system is held back by that very slow graphics card.

Sorry actually I do not know why your sim is doing that.
My suggestion for the .cfg file has nothing to do with that problem.
