When I start GPL I get 34 fps with all detail @ 1024x768 or i get 25 fps, no detail, 640x480. I'm using the directx papy patch with a geforce annihilator pro. I've tried 4 diff sets of drivers and still have the same results. Today I found out that my ESS sound device and the Geforce are both using IRQ 5. When I try to change IRQ's for either device it won't let me. Any help would be greatly apprecated. Also, I have tried various combinations of geforce settings( vsync off, fog table, etc) and i have run dxdiag.exe several times with no effect.

(unless this is an AGP card, in which case... nevermind.) IRQs get assigned based on the PCI slot a board is in. See if you can allocate a particular IRQ to a particular PCI slot in your CMOS setup. Some can, others can't. Go to "My Computer", right-click and select "Properties". Go to the "Device Manager" tab and scroll down to "PCI Bus" under "System Devices". Bring up it's property dialog and select the "IRQ Steering" tab. Uncheck "Use IRQ Steering". See if any of these will do the trick for you. Regards, Brett C. Cammack That's Racing!
