>I just bought SODA Off Road Racing today, and i can not get it to run in fullscreen.  When i click on the fullscreen icon, I will see the startup movie, then my computer screen will go blank, as if it is loading, then it will just bring me back to my desktop.  Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

What are you using for your primary video card? The Voodoo 2 makes no
difference in SODA. Some cards, such as S3's (outdated) VIRGE,
Trident, and Cirrus Logics  simply will not run SODA in fullscreen
mode. Are your video cards drivers DirectX compatible? If not, get the
latest drivers from the maufacturers web site.

PS- shorten the word wrap length on your newsreader. I, for one,
simply hate scrolling horizontally to read posts. Remember, the
majority of the Usenet community still runs their monitors at 640x480!

  I think with a 133Mhz you'll definately need a Rendition vid card.
SODA is not optimized for any other chipset.

Try changing your display setings to 640x480, the same thing happened to me.

Hmmm ... Outlook Express does the wrapping for me ... no horizontal
scrolling ...
