I have had this title since the first day it came out. I was never too happy
with the frame rate until recently. I came across two great little "fixes".
One was a registry setting to let me get 1024x768 with my V2 SLI. The other
was a "patch" that lets me run in Glide mode. WOW-----WHOLE NEW EXPERIENCE
!!!! Now I'm thinking it can't possible get any better that this. But I was
wrong. While playing with different graphics settings I went into the
sounds options. I did not realize that I did not have hardware accelerated
sound on nor did I have the highest quality selected. Now these changes
didn't make as much of a difference as my HEADPHONES !!!! It was really late
and I was trying not to wake the kids so I plugged in my $9.99 Jensen
headphones and POW !!! (Cue angelic choir singing AHHHH!!) This morning with
everyone else gone to church I tried something else. I kept 2 of my regular
speakers and my subwoofer turned on and still used the headphones. AMAZING
!!! I must say this is the best looking and sounding racing title I have
ever played since my recent tweaks.
