There is a similar reference on th HG forums. The cause was a dodgy CD or CD drive. I don't know if it is possible to try to copy the CD to your HD and install from there. Hopefully the CD will then be sufficient for the copy protection or use the nocd exe.

Rafe, I see where you bought F1RC (see below) and didn't like it. I would like to get F1RC to install on my computer so I can see if I like it. FWIW, the F1RC demo works fine. My F1RC crashes on installation with the French error message "Une erreur inconnve s'est produile lors de l'acces a un fichier nomme' " Any suggestions for an American with a PIII 450 mhz with SB Live sound card and a 3dfx 3000 AGP Video card????? I have updated 3dfx drivers , SoundBlaster Live Drivers, and the new Direct 8.1. This is the first game I have bought based on the demo that WOULDN'T even INSTALL. What type of system are you running ?? Any suggestions ????????????? Tim A. Deatherage [email hidden] www.timdeatheragecpa.com ----- Original Message ----- Finally got around to getting F1RC after all the discussion and praise for it in RAS. I honestly don't understand what all the fuss was about. The graphics are undoubtedly the best in F1 Sims ATM, but that's about it. Physics seem to be pretty arcadish to me, but I get the feeling there are a lot of assistance settings on that I can't disable (or can't locate). I chose custom difficulty, removing ABS and the "slide assist" thing. Manual gears, linear steering, etc. But it just doesn't feel right. Seems to have "clutch slip" between gears, no distinct change. No power oversteer at all. And hitting ripple strips, grass, etc doesn't upset the car at all, the tracks are way too smooth. Is there a single website worth visiting for info on F1RC, or any controller setup suggestions worth looking at? Recommended updates/patches? Oh, and I'm stuck in the chase view, how do I get into the cockpit? (I know, I'm a bit lazy these days :D ) Rafe Mc
Sounds a bit rough. Are you able to exchange it? Or maybe burn a copy of it? I don't think you'd be able to install from your HDD just by copying it, but maybe if you used those Daemon tool accessories? Just a guess... :) Rafe Mc On Sun, 23 Sep 2001 21:54:10 +0100, "Tony Rickard" <[email hidden]> wrote:
