HELP - Colin Mcrae Rally

by ma.. » Fri, 10 Sep 1999 04:00:00

Hi anyone!

I have a strage (?) problem with Colin Mcrae
Rally. The game works fine until I come to the
stage "Bluff Knoll" (Australia). The Overhead view
of the stage appears and the loading indicator
starts to increase, but when it reaches 20-25% it
stops. I can't do anything except the ON/OFF
button (ctrl-alt-del doesn't work). I have tried
with and without the 1.4 patch, I also installed
all the latest drivers, and I have tried a friends
Colin McRae Rally CD with exactly the same result.

HW/SW: 450 Mhz Dell, 128 Mb, ATI + VoodooII, W98.
(Tried both DirectX 6 and 6.1)

Help!!!

Change to software rendering for that stage.

Acually, I think the problem is that your drivers for your V2
is to NEW. Yes, I had the same problem, but when changing
my V2 drivers to an older version, it worked perfect.
Go figure ;)
