It simply doesn't work. The manual even states that Windows NT and Windows 2000 are not supported. I read a few other posts (on www.ntcompatible.com) and they have the same problems. It appears that EA is using some special ICD that is completely incompatible with NT/2000. I have since installed Win98 in a dual boot and the game runs great, and awesomely at that. Well worth the $30 I paid for it. Good luck,

Thanx for the fast reply, upgrading the nVidia drivers did the trick! Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

I switched to the 3.77 drivers, and it worked nicely. Some ppl might recommend the 5.08 ones, but they don't work to well on alot of games. Oystein -- Roy Batty: I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

Where do you guys get these drivers? I still run on 3.68 from NVidia. But i have the ASUS V6600. I guess it will be no problem using those drivers. But can please someone tell me where to find them? Antony [email hidden] schreef:

Forget about it I have the 5.13 !! already www.planetgeforce.com they seem te be much more stable then the 5.08 drivers and there is a checkbox for enable/disable FSAA !! Get them! But i still have to try them with NFS5 !! If it doesn't work there will be a fast response within an hour or so. If not : IT WORKS !! antony schreef:
