gpl mirrors

The Ferarri mirrors are truly the worst. I have  a different problem
though. I have an NVIDIA TNT2 card. In training the mirrors (any car)
work fine. But in races, there is only a static image in the mirrors and
no moving reflections. I can't see a thing behind me. How can I fix
this. The latest driver doesn't work and causes the game to crash on my
system. The previous driver is th eone I use, and it make GPL and all my
other games run much smoother than the newest driver, but this mirror
thing really bugs me. What can I do to fix it?

I have used several different driver versions on my TNT2 Ultra, and
have never observed a problem with mirrors like you are describing.
Given that the Ultra is just a higher clock speed, I can't believe that
there isn't something else affecting your display. I believe I am using
the 12.40 driver currently, and mirrors worked fine in my race last
night. (Unfortunately, my designated driver was definitely 'off', but
that's another story....)

12.41 is what I'm using. I had 12.81 installed, but the whole game would
crash when the pitboard waas about to popup for the first time (the
mirrors were ok though geeez!!!)
