The subject says it all. All my Nascar 4 screenshots are black. The .tga file is in the directory. And the filesize is correct. But when I load one of the pics up with my Paintshop Pro, there is just a black picture. Everything works like it should with my Nascar 3 screenshots...but not Nascar 4. Hayulp! Thanks... Pops

I've heard that this has something to do with either the OpenGL driver or D3D. My guess is to change from your current setup to the other and try it to see if that is the problem. If that works then I would post back and see if anyone has a specific fix for whichever display driver is causing the problem. I think it is most likely a hitch in the OpenGL setup.

I had this problem, but I'm not sure if its with PSP or not. Open it in another graphics program and resave it. I think I was opening it microsoft photo editor, saving it, and then it was good to go. I think that N4 must be using some odd setting to the tga files, maybe a mask or alpha layer. MadDAWG
