MOTO RACER Problems

by H. Ho » Sat, 24 May 1997 04:00:00

I have a Intergraph Reactor, Ensoniq Soundscape, Pentium 100, 32EDO,
USR Sportster.  I have downloaded and setup the Directx 3.0a drivers
into the system.  Then I went to install the Moto Racer demo and can't
open the demo without locking up the system at the startup screen.
All I get is the "Black Screen of Death."  I tried all the suggestions
in the FAQ.

Anyone have this problem also?  Come up with any solutions?  Please
help me out.

Try running the game with the -windowed switch.  This may help you to
work out whether or not it's going to work at all.  Also try changing
the screen resolution in your setup if using full screen (one of the
function keys also does it).  Your graphics card might be sending out
the resolution at a frequency your monitor can't handle resulting in
the black screen.

Just a couple of suggestions - I'm not an expert on this but I did
have similar problems when first using it.  The default resolution
when you first load the game played Mary-Hell with my monitor.

Good luck ..... Pete
