I am going insane here. Love the game but my ACT-Labs Force RS system totally loses control once in a while. When in the race, almost every lap. Practises sometimes go without any interruptions. I doubt it�s my steering system thought, cause it can get stucked in a pit too. Tried to browse every holes of internet without seeing any similar problem. Only one mention I found that someone was getting a same control lost playing with a keyboard. Suspected a display driver, same what I have. Here�s my system: Duron 800 Geforce2 MX400 (about a zillion different drivers already tested) Win 98SE ECS K7S5A Pro MoBo (crappy product, I know) ACT-Labs Force RS Steering wheel and pedals. I have succesfully played the game before (it was another motherboard though). The problem came with a new MoBo/graphic card. Anyone else had this kind kinda lost-controls behavior and with which system? Please help, tired of having had to save the game after every lap >:-( Vesa

You can ask on the GP3 forum of LFRS at http://www.lfrs.net/bin-ubb/ultimatebb.cgi We do not run GP3 right now, but when we did one or two drivers reported this problem. I'm not sure if they found a solution, but it won't hurt to ask :) Bart Westra

Got that Mobo and didn't have a problem with it and GP3 (haven't played it for a few months). The only scenario I recall of any steering issue was when the car wanted to auto pit when I didn't realise and I'd find the car suddenly going somewhere unexpected when it got near the pit lane. -- Pete Ives Remove All_stRESS before sending me an email
