allright then,stop punishing gp4 because it is after all the best f1 sim there is around. I have played f12000(what a joke),f1 2001(not even close),f12002(it is better,but weather effects are awful if a compare to gp4). ,gp3 was dissapointing i admit that. And those losers who cant get their wheel configured in gp4,i have microsoft ff wheel and it is working perfect(yeah split axis and everything.) Sorry about my bad english... H�kkinen rules ok.

I FULLY AGREE !!! I have GP4 & F12002 and GP4 is much much better imho. I'm aware of the shortcomings but overall it pleases me a lot more. It even runs in full detail on a modest 1400 XP+ with a GF4 on 1280*1024 The Sauce

Dude, an Athlon XP CPU, and a GF4 are not exactly modest PC's IMO (especially if your GF4 is not an MX series).

That is really friggin' close to the top end in my book. Fred

Sorry to tell you this, but your PC is not what I would classify as a "modest" PC.

Maybe I need a new computer, but what gets me most about GP4 is the lack of "speed sensation". The only time it seems I am going more than about 30 mph (even when the speedometer says 200) is when I run it without any cockpit. I'm not talking about bad frame rate here, just how slow it feels I'm moving through space. This is especially noticeable after playing F1 2002. Anyone else notice this?

And we know, the majority is always right... ;^P -- l8er ronny Your mouse has moved. Windows must be restarted for the change to take effect. Reboot now?

missing "Speed sensation"?? ME TOO!!! Until.... try this: I have a AMD 2100XP, 512RAM, GF4ti4600,.... still sleeping behind wheel.... UNTIL I set GP4 to 1024x, ON: TV - cockpit - mirrors, ALL advanced graphics options to highest (except shadows to 'low' -no loss).... sounds tough right? then I set frame rate to 22.. that was the kicker! Your eye/brain only needs 20-22 fps to percieve fluid motion, let the game play at 22, even if your machine can peak at 29-30 like mine does (P.S. $400 GF4-4600 later just to play GP4). ----- AAARRGHHH $400!!! I also tried it on my GF2-64MB, AMD 1900XP, 256RAM.... all I had to do was lower a few graphic options (AND KEEP THE GAME'S FRAME RATE AT 22 -or less, 19 min.) and everything worked great! -Really! TIP #1 #1 #1 If you can turn off AA, the frame rate increases by 50-70% depending on your card. Yes, looks better w/AA, but do you want to play or not??
