F1RS Demo (D3D) won't run on system

by Red Ne » Mon, 09 Mar 1998 04:00:00

I can't get the F1RS demo to work on my system, which consists of the
following:

AMD K6 running at 225MHz (3 X75)
ATI 3D Xpression (Rage II) PC2TV - 4MBs
64 MBs SDRAM
SB16
Windows 95 (upgrade version) with Internet Explorer 4.01
Gigabyte GA-586T2 motherboard
Motorola VoiceSURF 56K
WD 2.1GB & 528MB IBM Options harddrives
Latest drivers being used.

I have tried various 16-bit resolution settings with no luck.  I get
some error message.  If I use anything other than 16-bit I get an
error message that the program will not run.  It is the English
language version.

Any suggestions as to what the problem may be.
When replying please take the "a" out of "neat".

IE4 is an insideous beast and impossible to remove. You may have to
reformat the drive and then go with Netscape as a browser.
        Good luck, all the best, Mike

I'm using F1RS with IE 4.01 with no problems at all, i don't think
that is your problem. The only compatability problems I know of at the
moment are related to AMD K5 processors and s3 Virge video chipsets,
perhaps if you say what the error message is someone may be able to
help.
