Trying to get GPL working with Radeon 64. Reinstalled GPL installed 1.2 patch and d3d patch. I get a blue screen error and another error box that states tapiserv.exe has problem with kernel32. I have tried this with the drivers from CD and the newest beta drivers 7078 and am now on 7072 all the drivers have given the same error. If someone has this working what Radeon driver set are you using. Nascar 4, GP3, Nascar Heat, DTR, DTR sprints all work on this system all using DX8a. Believe it or not I am running Nascar 4 on this system at 1600 x 1200 with TnL Hal and it runs great. Win98 Celeron 600 256M ram cusl2-c MB Radeon 64 Retail DX8a Any help would be appreciated. Missing GPL. Thanks Craig

I did have major trouble at first because I used the WDM drivers for my card (WDM is for the AIW cards not the "regular" Radeons). My problem was the insistence of GPL to use the 3dfx driver. I don't know why but I imagine with the D3D patch if your proper D3D card driver isn't found it'll default to rast3dfx.dll. This led to various nasty crashes... There's a little problem with the installer detecting my card so I have to do a manual install. Anyway... couldn't get rid of the WDM drivers completely so ended up booting to safe mode, uninstalling the Radeon in Device Manager, clearing the registry of ATi keys and deleting all files beginning with "ati" (be careful), rebooting and installing the correct drivers. Good luck, Dale.

tapiserv.exe is modem related if I recall correctly (Telephone API). What else do you have running? It sounds as if something else is causing your problem other than the Radeon. Try the three fingered salute (crlt-alt-del) and close everything but explorer. No problems here with a Radeon 32ddr 7072 drivers.

Thanks all for the info I reinstalled DX8a and also deleted my modem (have cable and had given modem to daughter) working great now. I think GPL was trying to initialize my modem that was the tapisrv error.
