Anyone ever heve Multi.exe lockup during a race? The other night while in the middle of a league race, my computer
locked up! The only way out of it was to reboot. I've been racing Indy and Nascar since they came out, and never had
this happen. I've been told that the server was very busy (Last Sunday at 6pm PST) and people were being dumped from
races. I was wondering if getting dumped has caused any other computers to lock up?

Until I heard about people being "dumped" from races that evening, I thought my lockup was attributable to a power
transformer that blew in my neighborhood a few houses down the street.

There's a new version of MULTI.EXE (V1.34) that is supposed to address
those problems. I guess it's still an alpha version at this point, since it
isn't a forced download. If you do decide to use it, the system will try to
download the previous version (V1.33) every time you log in, so get ready
to hit escape.
