This may be too simple I know-appologies-but are you using the***pit view?
If you use the higher tv view the mirrors don't work..

yeah i`m using the***pit veiw... can`t play a racing sim any other way...

it seems to have fixed itself.... i tried most of the later drivers.. from

43.45 no mirrors but game is fine

45.23 mirrors but white flashes on the screen from the sky....?

53.03 same as above !!

53.04 same as above x 2 !!

53.06 same as above x 3!!!

gggrrrrhhhhhh

so i tried R-H add on and its fine using any of the drivers.. but when i use
the 2003 hi-detail cars it does the same....

so guess what.. i tried 41.09..... and its ***y fine...?

Go figure !!!

PC`s lol.. dosn`t always pay to have the latest drivers i guess....

no if only i could figure out why everytime i load GP4 it ask if i want to
conect to a DNS i will be fine  lol !!

I know it's a pain - but try 48.XX drivers.

For me the "last" working ones are the 45.23

I have geforce4 ti 4200, Xp pro and Dx 9.01b

This situation is really annoying but i think the latest drivers >50.00 are
mostly for newer cards with pixel shaders and so on and we should not
bother try to use them.

I just installed FIC 99-02 tonight on my PC with a R9800pro. The game
worked perfectly, my, how times have changed. :-)

Don't you use a firewall? Get Zonealarm and block GP4 from having
access to the internet, it won't bug you again after that. I've got a
few games like that, they want access to the interent for MP purposes,
even if you are not playing MP. They***me off too.
