I have a P2 400 mhz, 128 ram, half way decent sound card and a Viper 770
Ultra 128 meg video card.  It seems that I'm only getting about 21 to 23 fps
in N3.  I've tried to reduce detail but still my fps are around 21 to 23.
Does anyone have any recommendations on how to get my fps up?  I'm not
running any programs in the back ground.  Also, is there a webpage out there
they will help me adjust my video card?

Thanks,
Chuck

  I am assuming you chose the D3d option when installed it correct?  The #
of cars shown ahead and behind impact the framerate quite a-bit.  Limit the
sound to only 2 or 3 other cars, don't show more than 3 in back, try
reducing the # of cars shown in front of you as well.  Track texture can
also be disable, but I'd leave the groove line .  Wall textures are often
important for finding the braking spots, turn off the crowd...and the clouds
  Make sure you have the newest drivers ....good luck
