monza 10k problems

i installed the track and it played fine {by the way great job!!] but when i try to exit the monza 10k track, the pc freezes everytime where i have to actually shut off the pc! this does not happen when exiting any other track back to the desktop in gpl. Tried to reinstall and the same thing. Any suggestions to what im doing wrong?? i really want to get this track up and running as its a great reproduction. Thanx barb

What are the specs on your computer? This track is heavy graphically. Also if you have any read-only files they might create this condition. Use the utility CROA at http://www.davidcrowell.com/ to clear those attributes in the Sierra folder. "barbara johnson" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:<[email hidden]>...

There are several GeFoce4 cards. If it's an MX series card, it might have trouble with heavy graphics tracks like Monza10k or Brands Hatch67. The GeForce4 Ti series should be able to handle it, though. You could try lowering the detail or level of upgrades for the cars like using 2D wheels. YOu might also try using the latest OpenGL rasterizer with that system.

That link is dead :-/ on my p4 1.6 and radeon 9700pro I also have bad fps on this track, sometimes even 15fps with a full grid :( Andre

The track is gorgeous but I can't fancy racing on line with it. I also hate killing all those people in the pits every pitout :)
