Make sure you have version 3.68+ of the NVIDIA REFERENCE drivers. Shut down all background apps. Set the detail slider to one-third. Use 800x600 resolution. Turn off dynamic shadows and specular highlights. Show only cars in the mirrors. In core.ini, set the mirror rate to 3 or 4. Unfortunately GPL is not optimized to make use of the Geforce's power. GPL performance is more processor-oriented. You are running in OpenGL mode right? ...sorry, had to make sure =) That should give you 36fps, dropping to maybe 25 at the starts with 19 cars. Hope this helps!!! Cheers, ...Colin CLAW <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8fs5hd$2ab$[email hidden]... > I have just bought a geforce and when i am the only car in the picture iget
