NASCAR2 video problems- ATI mach64, Sony P200

I have a Sony Pentium 200, and it has a ATI mach64 PCI (macxw4) (DirectDraw) video card. I've got 48 meg RAM. NASCAR2 will show the intro videos jsut fine, but when the main menu comes on, the picture seems to be split apart in to 4 pieces, and jitters uncontrollably when I move the mouse. I've painfully navigated all the way to a race, but it never clears up. Anybody know what to do? Papyrus seems content to tell me they are overloaded with tech support requests, and let it go at that. I bet they are! I, for one, remember ICR2.

you need to download the new drivers from ati's web site the file is m64vbe.com and it clears everything up a fellow sony 200 owner

I had a similar problem when I had a Baby AT Advanced motherboard with ATI Mach 64 attached. I never managed to solve the problem, I just booted into dos. It ran fine. I now have a dual 133MHZ pentium and a Screamin' 3D Accelerator and it runs fine now. It may be a problem with ATI. You may wanna try downloading VESA 2.0 drivers. Scitech Display Doctor has a trial for 21 days of use. I think it is version 5.2. Hope this helps, John Flowers II

What's the point of a dual CPU system if your OS (Win95) doesn't take advantage of it? Do you have another video card to swap out and dual boot to NT or a version of UNIX? -- Emory University Graduate School of Arts & Sciences The IWCCCARS Project: Q & A Representative Nascar Setups Page: http://userwww.service.emory.edu/~ebusch/

Do not use the univbe that came with the game. Go to http://www.atitech.ca and download the latest m64vbe (vesa driver). Use ATI's vesa driver with the following command: m64vbe.COM acc -4 While you are at the ati web site, make sure you have the latest Win95 drivers. -- **************************** Michael E.
