Does anyone know which driver I should use with my Geforce 256-card when playing NFS Porsche? The game won't even start. I tried it on my other pc with a TNT2 64 card. No problem. Now we want to play network. Help me someone. Thanx! -- Hilsen/Greetings Kai-Asle S�nstab� _________________ Phone: +45 59200660 Mobile: +45 29453944 [email hidden]

You might just try the latest certified driver and move downwards. Or else-- more radical-- you might try swapping cards. The GeForce 256 just might work in the other machine. Alanb
I have a friend who was able to run it on a GeForce 2 MX with no problems. But I think he had to set his desktop to 16 bit color first. Could that possibly be the problem in your case?

I wasn't having the problem. With my GeForce 2 MX NFS: PU ran just fine. It was the other guy who was experiencing difficulty, and he was using a GeForce 256. But trying to run the game in 16bit color is a good idea. It's something to try. Alanb
Err, I meant that as a reply to the original poster. Sorry for the confusion. ;o) "Alan Bernardo" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:jrJ97.104533$[email hidden]... > > "Haqsau" <[email hidden]> wrote in message > news:cUH97.27274$[email hidden]... > > I have a friend who was able to run it on a GeForce 2 MX with no > > problems.
