Nascar2 and Mystique

6 posts by 6 people · 10 Feb 1997 - 16 Feb 1997

I bought a Matrox Mystique today and when I tried to reconfigure UVCONFIG for Nascar 2 I get a Divide Error. Ive updated the bios to v 1.3. I even tried to reinstall Nascar 2 but that didnt work either. What should I do? / Patrik

Not trying to be mean, just that is the worst Matrox card available.

The Mystique has a built-in VESA 2.0 bios, so you really don't need to use uvconfig. The only reason you should want to use uvconfig, is to have the VESA modes below 640x400. The Mystique doesn't do any VESA modes below 640x480. I also play GP2 in VGA (320x200) for best framerate, and I tried the latest Scitech Display Doctor a.k.a. Univbe version 5.3a to get the 320x200 VESA mode for my Mystique. Honestly, I couldn't tell the difference between playing the game with Univbe and playing without. Take care, have fun.... //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
> trying to be mean, just that is the worst Matrox card available. Sure, but one of the best video card available!!!

I don't agree w/Doug's opinion but I will defend to the death his right to express it :-] I have a mystique w/ 1.3 bios and NASCAR2 runs perfectly. I'm sorry I don't know how to fix your problem, however I got a quick reply from Matrox when I wrote to them about another problem i was having. Tried those guys yet? Craig

Check the = Nascar2 readme file for instructions to delete the UVCONFIG.DAT and = UNIVBE.DRV files from your NASCAR2 directory.
