GPL won't race (another one)

Just upgraded my PC. So because it can cause some trouble's I re-installed GPL. After GPL has started, you can enter de driver, options etc. I can choose for a circuit en click the green flag. The only reaction is "Could not initialize the replay sytem." (Click OK), next window is "Canceling the Weekend" and I'm back in the first screen. I can look at older replay's, I can see my best times but I CAN'T race. Used GPL version is uk with patch 1.2.0.2 (delivered with CD), I already tested the cpu-fix (no changes) Used Sytem is a ABIT KT7-Raid with 768 MB RAM, 1.2 AMD Thunderbird, GF2MX with Nvida 21.81 drivers and OS= WIN98SE ( I already Changed Windows system.ini (vcache) so I can use this amout of RAM) Maybe any user already solved a problem like this one and want to share the solution with me ?? I hope so. Thanks in advance . Johan

too much installed memory. Even with the vcache setting I would think. Try removing a memory chip. Good luck. dave henrie "J. Clermonts" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3bf90e9c$0$55513$[email hidden]... > Just upgraded my PC. So because it can cause some trouble's Ire-installed

Given that you have 768MB of RAM, GPL is probably trying to allocate a larger replay buffer that Windows will allow. Edit your core.ini and in the [Replay] section change the ReplayMemoryOverride setting to something like [ Replay ] ReplayMemoryOverride = 256000 The units for the number are Kbytes of memory, so 256000 is about 256MB of replay memory.

Thanks for the reply. Should it also be solved if I change to Win XP, cause XP handels better with that amount of memory?? I know try is and you will see, but to buy XP only for GPL is quite expensive. :-) Johan "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> schreef in bericht news:%F8K7.46507$[email hidden]... > too much installed memory.

262144 would be exactly 256 Mb ;-) Jonny

Problem solved. Thanks a lot, back to challenge the (personal) times.
