I installed the new detenator 3 drivers (6.18) for my Geforce 256, but somehow, it crashed GP3 back to the desktop whenever I started a race or a practise. So I decided to go back to older drivers (5.22). But now every 5 seconds GP3 is 'hanging' the PO is going to 300/400. Then it goes back to normal after 5 seconds... the same My current system: P3 800 256 MB Geforce 256 32MB win98 DirectX 7a Is there anybody who had the same problems and solved them? Or anybody who has an idea? I deleted already all geforce drivers, uninstalled GP3 and reinstalled everything but this was not helping. Thanks a lot for your help. Maurice
did you uninstall the old rivers as directed in the readme, BEFORE you installed D3? MetalMouse <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I even looked through the registry to delete everything what looked like NVIDIA... But no result... Maurice On Fri, 18 Aug 2000 23:23:45 -0700, "Kai Fuller" <[email hidden]> wrote:

Yeah, I got this too. Put Detonator 3 back on and go into your GP3 directory and delete the cards.txt file. Then the game should run ok. "MetalMouse" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
