Hello, Thanks to this NG I can now run F1 2K (it was a video drivers something...) But, but, but everytime I hit a wall the game crashes, is it the extra realism touch like 'you are dead I go back to Windows' ? Is this a known problem that I can fix easily or must I download a patch ? by the way where can i get some patches and updates for this ? Thx a lot PS 1.29.33 at monza 10 days ago, ONLINE, first time ever under the 1.30 and in an online practice.....

This appears to be a problem with the FF wheel's drivers (specifically with the Guillemot wheel). Some have gone back to the original drivers which came with the wheel (scrapping the updated version). I was able to turn off damage and still use the FF without crashing back to the Windows desktop (but we all want damage don't we <G>). % Is this a known problem that I can fix easily or must I download a patch ? % by the way where can i get some patches and updates for this ? oooops more than one more to go.....

Michael is right, if you are using the Guillemot wheel, my guess is that you are using the revised 1.23 version of their drivers. The problem goes away if you remove these and go back to the original drivers on the CD you got with the wheel. Iain Michael E.
