There 'shouldn't' be any problem. But then, I'm not an XP user. I will say that if you can find it, F1 Challenge 99 - 02(F1c) is usually only about $9 usa dollars at the bigger chain stores like Best Buy and CompUsa. Any wierdness with xP should be fixed since F1c is the 4th newer generation of F1 2000. You don't mention your system specs. How much RAM does your system have, what speed is the CPU and what kind of video card do you have? And what version of DirectX do you have installed. dave henrie

I didnt mention specs because i had this working on windows 98 but after my upgrade to XP i just cannot get this game to work. anyways my specs are cel 450 512mb ram big hdds geforce 4 vid card 128mb dx9 winxp patched fully. "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Fairly common system...So you seem to be clearly in the ballpark for the title. My only GUESS right now might be the age of F1 2k and it's probably designed for directx 7 or 8.( I can't remember which.) You might want to try rolling back the video drivers for your geforce card to 21.8x. Those were the first working drivers for F1 2k. There is a patch also for 2k isn't there? dave henrie

If there is a patch - can u direct me to it? Thanks Al "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

A dload started when I clicked on the dload link. I think you just missted his link to the dload. dh
