Help! VROC GPL PC Crash

by Lake » Sat, 23 Jan 1999 04:00:00

Very sorry to those racing tonight when my hosted GPL Monza race crashed.
I was hosting via VROC. Got to lap 7 of 11 and my PC froze - had to reboot.
This does not normally happen with my PC - it was something to do with the
GPL online race.

Windows 95 with updated drivers
Standard core.ini
Modem is cable
PII 266 AGP
Monster 3D 2
FPS 33 to 36 (yeah - downgraded graphic options)

Any ideas what to do?
Help!!
Tony

If I remember Alison's tech notes, a PII266 is a little light in horsepower to
be hosting, much less hosting that many racers.  I could be wrong, but God
knows someone will correct me. ;-)

On the other had, another thorough read of her Tech Notes and Online FAQ would
be a very good place to start to see where the problem lies.

Regards,

Kurt
