Hi, I recently switched my card from a Voodoo3 3000 to a Hercules Geforce II GTS Pro 64MB DDR W/TV OUT. And now when I load up GPL, it's only available in 640x480 and it wont let me set a D3D adapter? When I do choose D3D it says I need to restart the game, but when I do it's back to using no adapter, and 640x480? Any ideas? Also, is there a OpenGL patch or something for GPL? I got the card mainly for Nascar4, and it's working great. Now if I could get GPL back to normal... One more thing.. Is there anyway I can keep both my new AGP Geforce2 card and my old PCI VooDoo 3 card in the same box, with only 1 monitor? Or do you need two monitors when using two cards? Thanks for any help and ideas.

Check if the file "app.ini" in your GPL-folder is write-protected and if so, remove the write-protection. Regards Crash
