When I attempt to change the driver name from "the player" my computer locks up. Same when I try to paint an opponents car. Otherwise sim works great. Any known issues or system screw up? I'm going to "attempt" to install an Xtasy GF Ti200 this weekend. Specs…Sony P4 1.7 512meg sdram TNT2 M64 etc…..Win XP home ed. Thanks in advance.
There seems to be a problem with d3d and that option. Change your video to opengl, then make the changes you need and finally go back to d3d. dave henrie "Dixiemandan" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > When I attempt to change the driver name from "the player" my computerlocks > up.

Thanks in advance. When I was playing musical-video-display-driver-chairs, one of the NVIDIA drivers I eventually tried produced this behavior. I think this is a known issue, check the README. The only driver I have tried that seems to work for every application I own is the driver that came on the CDROM that came with my GF3, although these are a little 'slow' for NR2002 with full eye candy. Good luck, Gerald
If you have an Nvidia based card, check the readme for details. -John "Dixiemandan" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > When I attempt to change the driver name from "the player" my computerlocks > up.
