What's so "steep" about that? Most everyone who is running N2 or ICR2 Rendition is past all these requirements. Myself? I'm running a P133, 32 Meg RAM, Win95, SondBlaster 32, Matrox Millenium 4Meg video card. Jimmy

I think he was being sarcastic. :)

That's steep all right, geez, a system like that with a 15" monitor would probably set a guy back almost $900... Outrageous. ---Jim

Usually taking the "System Requirements" X 3 will provide enough muscle to run the game at a decent frame rate. Terry

> > What's so "steep" about that? Most everyone who is running N2 or ICR2 That's more or less what I'm running, but in one year, the P133 CPU should become obsolete. It won't be as long as you think until games come out requiring P166 or P200s.

I am absolutely NOT going to upgrade to Win95 for this!!! The MS-CART sim might finally force me to, though... :( Earl

I hear that your computer has to "crash" a lot too... I'm sorry, I couldn't resist! -- Mike's Nascar World http://www.netins.net/showcase/mpete/nascar.html Stop on by, what can it hurt?

>I am absolutely NOT going to upgrade to Win95 for this!!! >The MS-CART sim might finally force me to, though... :( As a long time hold out for "upgrading" to Win95 myself, I can say that it's not all bad.... especially if you know how to make a multi-config boot-up menu... (and even though MS will tell you it did away with AUOTEXEC and CONFIG files (and DOS for that matter), it's all still there... and what's more - Win95 handles multiple DOS windows better than Win 3.1!) :-) - Mike. ================================================================ = R.I.P.

I can't wait to see what scoring system they use to count completed laps. :)

Hmm..will there be a messed up victory lane scene if there is an A.J. Foyt car there and Arie comes up to talk to A.J.? :>) Christopher http://members.aol.com/ROSCS ----------------------------------------------------
