OK, two questions...any idea why and where do I find the error log? Demo version runs fine.. System should be ok..Win2k...AMD 950...Gforce 2 (64mgb)...512 ram...Demo runs fine...any suggetsions appreciated before I send it back...NR2002 runs ok, SCGT runs ok... **** "Here we are on a planet moving and spinning though space at 500 miles per second...and look...my beer stays right there in the glass! Ain't that just the neatest thing?" - Bill 'Spaceman' Lee interviewed by Dick Schaap (quote approximate)

Got it myself at the weekend and did a full install on XP, went to start it, got the initial splash screen, then nothing. Un-installed it and did a minimum install and it works fine now. Might be worth trying a different install size. -- Sean Black

I had problems with my new PC and it was due to the graphics drivers. I was using det drivers for gf2 and the recommendation from Codemasters tech support was to get the latest version of drivers. Worked perfectly after installing the latest drivers, 28.?? I think. Try emailing the tech support, they were quick and on the ball.
