Hey All,

I bought GPL today and the two times I've actually gotten to race were
pretty good!  I'm having a problem with GPL completely freezing my computer
durring menu screens.  No problems with any other 3dfx games.   PII 350
SBlive  Monster3DII...   Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks

Rob

If you're using Logitech MouseWare8.0x, try using the generic Win95
mouse driver,
this solved the problem for me.

rumored to be related to the 3dfx beta directx6 drivers also, but I can run
with them.

THanks!  I'll try it.  Strange how it didn't happen in the demo...

If you are using the reference 3Dfx beta DX6 drivers that is the problem. Go
back to the latest release version of the drivers. Both 3Dfx and Papy are
aware, but are taking a long time to sort it out. Approx 6 weeks now.
