Im using windows 2000, liveware 3, TNT 2 (6.18) LWFF (3.65) and DX8. GPL was crashing after a short amount of play. I believed it was the sound card, but I tried without my LWFF and it worked fine. I renamed my core.ini and used the wheel, and the game worked fine besides no FF. Does anyone see a problem with my core.ini? Before this I tried reinstalling, 1.2 patch, d3d patch and registry editing . . . . AFAIK the file is standard - besides the wheel info.

if that is your .ini file then you do have a problem. You have [joy] and [hack] parameters listed TWICE!! Erase the last part of that .ini file and see if that fixes it. rik.
