I have a Dell 8100 - 1500 MHz, 256MB RAM, GeForce2 Ultra 64 MB running XP.
Installed N2002 yesterday and was bummed to only get ~15-20fps at Daytona
during practice with maybe a dozen cars in 800x600x16. Installed the 23.11
drivers to see no difference. Previously (on Win2k) on N4 i would get
anywhere from 40-60fps at higher resolutions.
Anyone have any suggestions or similar experiences??

What API are you using? Sounds like D3D. Try Open GL for that GeForce, it
likes OGL better. Also disable anisitropic filtering in the graphics setup
page.

I have a 1.4GHz T-bird and a GF3 and get 24-28 fps at
1024x768x32 with everything turned on, and a full field of AI. This
is with D3D on Win98SE. I use the Quincunx anti-aliasing.
My framerates in N4 were usually about 10 fps higher. I could get
about 20 fps better if I used OpenGL, but I paint a lot and liked
being able to ALT+TAB back and forth. Haven't tried OpenGL in NR2002
yet, but I may as 24 fps is getting rather marginal.
I dont think the GF3 is much faster than the GF2 ultra except in terms
of FSAA. You should be doing better, I think.
Don't know what to suggest, other than trying various drivers and
possibly switching to the other graphics library.
Good luck,
Gerald Moore
