seconds I lock up for good. BS! Like stated here before retail software

Make sure desktop is at 16bit colour before running. Open the
config.ini in the F12001 folder and change the WINDOWEDMODE=0
to WINDOWEDMODE=1 Run the 3D Setup before running the game and have it
analyze your system. Not sure if you did all that already or not.

I use 12.90 drivers with a GF2 and have no problems in F12001.


1. F1 2001 demo at USGP wasn't F1 2001

2. F1 2001 or Formula One 2001?

3. Lemans 2001 Mod for F1 2001 - No sound after Manual install?

4. Button was on the F1 pre-race show playing F1-2001

5. F1 2001 - make your version of F1 Papy/Sierra!

6. F1-2000cs vs F1-2001

7. F1 2000 to F1 2001: is it worth it ?

8. F1 RC vs F1 2001

9. Real F1 electronics and F1 2001 driving aids
