Do you mean OpenGL? Install the 1.2 patch and then the D3D patch.

From a GF3 review http://www.simracingmag.com/articles/hardware/01q2/gf3_8.shtml on Simracingmag.com "But alas nothing is perfect, there's a bug and I found the source (wish I could fix it). It's happening when coming off the track, back to the menu. In GPL the menus are at 640 x 480 no matter what you choose in the options, what you choose in graphics menu under option in GPL is when you go on the track" "Zulcar" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > GPL+ME+P4+GF3= Black Screen, i get a black screen after i try to leave any > track. i got open patch and cpu patch, and still get this problem, anyhelp > out there? > >

This is a known GeForce2/3 problem with OpenGL, use the D3D patch instead. Gerry

Don't forget the CPU patch. I have P4 1.7 ME and GF3 and I only get a slight grey shading in GPL when returning to the pit screen. Everything else is OK. Andi.
