After reading about GP3 and comparisson to F1 2001, I finally bought GP3. I tried to run it on my Celeron 400, 96M memory, Voodoo3 2000 PCI, but the application doesn't even fully starts and freezes (has to do reset 8-( I tried to download latest drivers, kill all other applications (even from tray), but no luck. The Readme says that Voodoo3 2000 PCI is supported, but I can't make it work? I put in the GP3 patch 1.13, but no luck. Any idea what might be wrong?
I *used* to have a celeron 400@600 with a V3 3000 (AGP tho) and GP3 was no problem. I used the 1.07( i think) drivers. It would run fine when not oc'ed, but as soon as the speed was upped it would flip out. The only game to do that. Most likely it's a setting in your bios or a drivers thing. What DX version you running. Try loading up the "fail-safe defaults" in the bios and see how you go. Rafe Mc On 10 Nov 2001 11:43:15 -0800, [email hidden] (Lubos Pochman) wrote:
