HI I had a black screen too. I changed my Monster card driver with the "direct 3d 3dfx" driver found at the 3dfx page(3dfx.com), and all worked well.I'll send you a copy of the driver by e-mail Take care Rick

I run it fine with a Pure 3D. Make sure you have the latest drivers for the monster, a lot of people seem to be having the same problem with this demo. Don

I had a problem until I changed my Windows screensize to 640x480, then everything was fine. Great graphics, good sound. It is a lot like the F1 sim done by them.
Now, see, in _my_ newsreader, the thread about this topic is right below this one. I wonder how he has his reader setup that he could possibly miss it? I mean it says black screen right in the subject... -- <<Dark Phoenix>> ICQ # 5905329 >Having probs with castrol bike game, i have the demo, get the start up >screens, but when i get into the game and just a black screen with sound / >bike gears and speed but other wise a huge black screen any help would be >great >I have a 3dfx monster - 200 mhz so should be no probs and also it is a 3dfx >game ???

Aha, but in mine where I have subjects listed in order of the time they were sent to the group, that thread is miles down the line.(So far in fact i'd given up on a reply to it fixing the problem). Steve

I had the same problem; just go to http://www.3dfx.com and install their 3dfx reference drivers--it worked for me cheers, matt -- Mattc AToz DOT net spam-bait follows: And for you automated email spammers out there, here's the email addresses of the current board of the Federal Communications Commission: And let's help you send some spam to the USPS, too:
