Nascar Heat video help ?

I just bought Nascar Heat. I currently have 2 video cards - a Diamond Viper V550 and a Diamond Monster 3d 2. It appears that Nascar Heat is pointing to my Monster card because it is only allowing me a resolution up to 800x600 in the game and that's all that card can do. I want it to use my main card - the Viper V550. How can I change this or find out for sure what it is pointing to - I didn't find anything in the game telling me. Thanks for any help.

If you want to use your primary graphics card instead of the 3Dfx card, modify the desktop and startmenu shortcuts by appending " -1" to the shortcut's target. For example: "c:\Program Files\Hasbro Interactive\NASCAR Heat\nheat.exe" -1 You must launch the game using the shortcut for the change to occur. That's from the README.TXT.... Wonder why they call it that way :-/ -- Sjon none <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Hfju5.2088$[email hidden]... > I just bought Nascar Heat.

Thanks, I had looked for a file like that but didn't see it on my drive after the install. When I searched the CD it was there. They should copy it over to the hard drive with the install. "Sjon Stigter" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8pd9fb$mll$[email hidden]...
