Do you have more than 360 megabyte RAM ?

Do you have more than 540 mbytes of RAM?

If you've installed new graphics or any other files they would be the culprit. Technically you could remove them, then reapply them a couple at a time to see what doesn't help. If you've installed the files into the .dat reinstalling the game may be in your future. I think i've spent a couple hours before just seeing what patches modify what and what works with what. Once that's done the program is eutopia, except for Surtees...

I usually get he prob if I've messed with some of the car mips, so that may be a good place to start. Jim Thomas Kellenstine <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Ok... Checklist time.... if you've been adding tracks.... it'll be the numbers ,(total number of tracks, or track numbers out of order).. check em in the seasons folder.. (.ini files) if you've been adding to track graphics.... backup the track folder and import the original off the cd.... if that works... try adding the contents of the backed up folder a bit at a time till it doesnt work again.. if you've been changing car graphics... same thing , do a back up , put an original back in and then add upgrades one at a time.. I've had the same problem due to the first two, but not the third... maybe I'm lucky! hope this helps...jv Thomas Kellenstine <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Sorry Eldred ... I was trying to say that if the individual tracks are numbered out of order.. ie by just adding tracks and not altering the event no's so they run concurrently you may get problems with replay anyliser etc.... I seem to remember that this didn't stop the game loading the track however... hehe..... I ended up with a whole load of these tracks in twice , and they still loaded.!! jv... :-)) EldredP <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > In article <8f0kg0$opb$[email hidden]>, "Juan Vizoso" > <[email hidden]> writes: > > >Ok...
