I'm guessing that GPL ran before you got the wheel. Does the wheel work with any other games? Did you try reinstalling the wheel software? Any error messages, or are you just getting a black screen? Some system specs might help too.

Can some one please help . Do some troubleshooting..... Is your new wheel selected in games controller as device #1? Try deleting the following file from your players folder in GPL: controls.cfg try turning FF off and on via the GPL core.ini file Try running GPL with your FF wheel turned off Try uninstalling and re-installing your wheel's drivers Try the wheel via your serial or USB ports to see if GPL will run then Disconnect your wheel altogether.... will GPL now run? if not then the problem is with your GPL installation. -- **************************** Michael E.

I have done all those things. It works with gpl 1.0 but no 1.2. As I have a voodoo3 2000 PCI. I have to use 1.2, along withthe many other improvements. any ideas?

Sorry about that, it was just a little joke. :) GPL doesn't work at all now? Very strange. Is there maybe something else you did when installing the new wheel? I presume the wheel is the Ferrari FF. I've never had a problem with mine, although I don't use it now. Try removing the wheel and un-installing the wheel drivers/software and see if GPL starts working.

Things you could try (apologies in advance if you've already tried them all) -) have you got the latest drivers for the Ferrari wheel? -) are you using DirectX 7a? -) try switching off FF in the core.ini file and see if this makes it work, not a solution I know, but it might give you valuable info. -) check FF is working in other games -) switch to the serial port connector -) check if your V3 is sharing resources or conflicting with your USB (maybe try the V3 in a different PCI slot?) -) re-install GPL (make a copy of the whole GPL folder before you try this, so you don't lose your setups and best laps) -) check GPL 1.2 works when the wheel isn't connected, and check you have the right country version of 1.2 -) check the wheel is working fine in the control panel :)
