NL keeps crashing on me...

Hi, Nascar Legends always hangs when i try to set the controls. Ican click on "wheel" but i can't set the controls then.. Can't tell it to use "axis one" for steering, et cetera. It justcrashes and i have to reset the PC. The demo did it just as well as the full version... Is there a trick? Cheers! Cris

More info please.. What OS? Have you patched it to the latest version? 1.2.0.4 I believe. If running it on an NTFS partition you MAY need to turn on indexing for the folder

Biz... Just to clear this up a bit, NL is the 70's cars version of NR2 or 3... not sure what luck he'd have with todays equipment its (NOT NR02) Biz wrote:

Ah, well I say... I have it too, but wasn't in the mood to install it (not in the mood to go back in time I guess, least not in that sim... LOL) anywho, I saw you mention the patch numbers, then thought, hmmm he think of some other game? My bad :P I dug around though, found my SODA OFFROAD, and (to my suprise) the Hercules (thriller) rendition 2 card in that same box... I damn near took Juniors machine apart, lol, But alas I didnt. Sure as hell wish someone could have updated that games gfx to at least DX... Biz wrote:

Papy promised us a Glide patch IIRC. I agree that was one fun game for it's time. Mitch "Plowboy2" <stingre.removethis_@yahoo!.removeit> wrote in message news:m9HZc.31925$wu.16075@okepread04...
