Two of the problems I had with NFS PU and Creative GeForce Annihilator.
Symptom1:
Menus in game are fine but when you click race the game crashes either back
to windows or locks.
Issue:
Appears to be related to the 368 drivers (especially the Nvidia ref drivers)
Solution:
Go to the GeForce FAQ
( http://web.ukonline.co.uk/christopher.hill/faq.html )and follow steps to
uninstall the Creative drivers. Then install the Nvidia 377 ref drivers
(These are included on the NFS PU cd)
Symptom2:
After installing the Nvidia 377 reference driver the game will run fine and
the race screens will load - but once it brings up the race screen
everything is the same color and all textures are gone. Only the HUD is
visible on a pink or yellow screen. Sounds and controls also appear to work
fine.
Issue:
Appears to be related to the 377 drivers and the "enable fog table
emulation" setting found in the display properties.
Solution:
Go to display settings and in the advance section under D3D you will need to
make sure the "enable fog table emulation" setting IS CHECKED. This is
probably the default, but some people (like myself) may have it disabled for
it's minor speed gain.
I would appreciate if someone running the 377 could confirm or deny this
last one. Just turn off your 'fog table emu' and try playing the game once
to see if you have the same graphic problems.
Thanks
You need the 5.08 drivers

running Det drivers version 3.68. Was going to return the game until I read
your post. 2: THANK YOU! The fog table EMU advice solved the problem and I
now am having far more fun than I thought I would playing the game. Thanks
again!
