rec.autos.simulators

I've downloaded the patch, followed carefully the instruction. The
game loads but everytime I want to go to a track the game
crashes...anybody got an idea on what the problem could be?

Thanks

Jean

I have a Pentium 120 Overdrive, 24 MB of RAM, an ATI Mach64
with 2MB of VRAM, an original Soundblaster, and a Thrustmaster
T1. It will crash if I try and go to any of the tracks, and it
will crash if I try to go to the sound options.

The intro plays just fine, including the sound, and all of the
tests confirm that everything should be OK. I have the
latest ATI drivers, and every other DirectX app has
run OK, so I'm at a loss as to what the problem is.

I even went back and installed the DOS version from
scatch, ran the conversion to version 1.0.2, and then
ran the Win95 patch, and still no luck.

I was actually pleasantly surprised, based on my prejudiced opinions of
Win95 as a *** platform, that ICR2WIN runs as well on my machine as it
does.  I expect that it's due in part to having 32 MB RAM, as I don't seem
to suffer from the well-documented "pauses" in the game.  No GPF's, either.

The gameplay more or less sucks, though, compared to the DOS version; lower
framerates and notchy sound are certainly no incentive for me to play it.

The paintkit will probably be the only thing that keeps it on my HD until
I get my optimized-for-Rendition version... :)
