Hey All I've just bought GP3 Season 2000, uninstalled GP3 and started playing the new game. Problem is that for some reason it keeps freezing on me in the menu screen after the videos, ie. the screen with the rotating team logo. I have a Saitek X-36 and Thrustmaster Modena Pro, both USB, a P111-800, 256MB RAM, Voodoo3 and Sounblaster Live running Win98SE. I can't figure this out...the only way to fix it is to uninstall and reinstall which is becoming unfun very quickly....any ideas!?

isn't the season 2000 an addon to GP3, meaning you don't uninstall GP3? it's probably another .exe and some other files, but still needs to use the files from the original game. Just a shot in the dark mind you..... sudesh "Andrew Dawes" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:G4Hm7.2226$[email hidden]... > Hey All > > I've just bought GP3 Season 2000, uninstalled GP3 and started playing > the new game.

No,you can install the add on as a second version of gp3, gp3 2000 only asks for the presence of the original game cdr.......it's a whole different game itself -- Greetings :)RuuD� +------------------------------+

No idea other than go the reinstall. Can't be a 3d problem, so drivers are not an issue. I've got an Athlon 1ghz running with a V3, 256mb RAM and SBlive on win 98SE, no problems at all here. Rafe Mc On Sun, 9 Sep 2001 19:59:10 +1000, "Andrew Dawes" <[email hidden]> wrote:
