GP3 2k should run just as smooth as GP3.. on my system it does, and I didn't hear of this problem before. Maybe XP is the cause of the problem? I run Win98SE.. Andre
That's true, there were a number of people saying it runs a lot slower than GP3 in Win XP. Not a lot, but maybe 5%.

Or possibly the DirectX version 8.1 that installs with XP is the problem? Just wondering out loud. Anyone with Win98SE & DX8.1 having problems like this? -- Fester
Runs pretty well here, Win98se, dx8.1. On a Gf3 and tbird 1.4ghz, max everything and PO at 50% I think it's just XP AND Win 2K that are the problem. But they should still run reasonably. Rafe Mc On Wed, 14 Nov 2001 16:22:24 GMT, Uncle Fester <[email hidden]> wrote:

Btw, has anyone with the older red LWFF been successful configuring split pedal axes in GP32000 with XP? TIA! DN "Rafe McAuliffe" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
