When I switched my video to a geforce2 ti500, my fps shot way up, almost double at full throttle. However, inbetween option/racing screens,(off & online) its very slow loading and transferring. I barely make the race after qualifying. I have openGL enabled, because otherwise the fps gets cut by a third. Any help, suggestions is deeply appreciated. thanks.

I have no clue why it would also show up on a NON-3dfx. Now d3d 'should' run well on your system. I would guess trying some different drivers but I just haven't heard of this behavior before. dave henrie
Thanks, Dave..........I rebooted, and boom, all is well. Fast like it should be. "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:6g6u8.8930$V44.501@rwcrnsc53...

Do you by any chance have 128MB ram of less, or a slower system? I notice this more on systems with 128MB ram or less and systems under say 800-900MHz -- Biz "Don't touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn't understand alloys and compositions and,......things with molecular structures,....and the....." - Ash CayJon <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:a9b0tu$n43$[email hidden]... > Thanks, Dave..........I rebooted, and boom, all is well.
