GP2 crashes

2 posts by 2 people · 28 Mar 1997 - 02 Apr 1997

Hi fellow racers, it might be interesting to compare configurations on those machines that suffer from the infamous "sound loop crash" when colliding with other cars. I for one have never suffered from that crash under VGA graphics, it only seems to happen with SVGA on my system. I tried the UNIVBE driver, but it still crashes. I tried the unpatched vanilla CD-rom installation, still crashes. I tried running it in my sound card Windoze sound system emulation, but it still crashes. What did you other people try to get rid of those crashes? The game *seems* to run fine until I watch a replay, but maybe there's no connection. What sound card do you people use?

I get this, but it has only started to happen fairly recently, since I started using GP2 Edit I think. I run in DOS SVGA only, and haven't tried re-installing, but I assumed this would clear the problem...
