Hi All, I need your suggestions. Over the past few weeks my system had been getting more and more unstable. I could not locate the problem and since my windows and system folders had about 6 years worth of extra crap in them I decided to format my drive and start fresh. Reinstalled Win95, reloaded all my drivers and got all my hardware working fine. I got all my software working fine including the following sims/games Viper Racing - no problem N3 - no problem MGPRS2 - no problem NHL2000 - no problem I reinstalled GPL and when the sim loads, I see the Sierra Sports screen and then my system reboots. What is going on? I'm using all the same hardware and drivers as I was using before. I have no new hardware or software on my system that wasn't there before. My system is: 333 Celeron 96mb ram Voodoo 3 2000 PCI Aureal Au8810 3D sound card Suggestions PLEASE!!!!! I need to get this fixed to stay ahead of St. Eldreds Cup!!! Thank, Larry
