N3 Gauges?

Hi, Just installed Nascar 3 and the CTS add-on, twice, and my problem remains no needles on my gauges! I think I've seen something about this before, but can't seem to recollect. On the second try I installed the updates from Sierra.com to no avail. Also getting what appears to be weird line movement in the infield grass, all graphic options on, framerates between 50-60. Any ideas, crew? Win98SE Athlon 1.2gz 512mb ram Radeon 64mb AGP -Brian www.brianmclernon.com

Hmmm.. not sure this is the problem but have you tried playing the game in different resolutions?

Amazingly enough this happened to me about two sets of new radeon drivers ago... I think it cured itself... I certainly did nothing.. try the 7012's :-) Try going to a lower resolution , run the game ..and then come back to your usual res ..see if that does it! .jv "Brian Mc" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:jggR6.84085$[email hidden]... > Hi, > Just installed Nascar 3 and the CTS add-on, twice, and my problem > remains no needles on my gauges!

I have same thing with my All in wonder Radeon....no needles and lines moving in infield. I bought the Radeon to replace my AIW Pro when I bought N4 so it hasn't really been an issue for me but I tried the suggestion above....no change. 4.13.01.7072 driver (Don't gimme NOCRAP in E-mail)

This is a problem with video driver for the Radeon card. I don't remember which version works, but if haven't done so, goto ATI and download the latest offical version (7075) or the beta (7115) and see if it takes care of it.

The main thing is to 'really' change the drivers :-).... Go to add/remove and remove your ati drivers... then go to device manager and change the display adapter to a pci one.. (it still thinks it is agp..) Finally.... in spite of windows warning .. hehe ... reduce res to 640 x etc... Reboot and reinstall new drivers.. this way maybe it resets the agp port too. I still say those needles wus gone !! Now theys back!!! radeon 64 ddr it must be when I changed drivers.. ?
