Anyone got a clue on how to get the Colin McRae Rally demo working? It doesn't work on my P166MMX with Voodoo Rush nor on my P133 with S3. Maybe it just doesn't work at all, but after 4 hours of downloading I don't want to believe this! wim desmedt

I had to uninstall DirectX 6.0 :( > Anyone got a clue on how to get the Colin McRae Rally demo working? > It doesn't work on my P166MMX with Voodoo Rush nor on my P133 with S3. > Maybe it just doesn't work at all, but after 4 hours of downloading I > don't want to believe this! > wim desmedt

Hope you find someway to run it, I enjoy it even though it's not completely realistic (but then what really is). It's pretty fun in the in-car mode. The game is basically a mix between arcade and simulation, which makes a pretty good game if done right, like this. Jon

I heard that the version of the demo we downloaded was not an official release. Codemasters will be releasing a new demo shortly (I hope :) Jason > Anyone got a clue on how to get the Colin McRae Rally demo working? > It doesn't work on my P166MMX with Voodoo Rush nor on my P133 with S3. > Maybe it just doesn't work at all, but after 4 hours of downloading I > don't want to believe this! > wim desmedt -- ----- Jason Monds (Remove 'no spork' when replying)

I Emailed Codemasters about the current demo which I found to be very poor and this is the response I got. So I guess we have to wait for a decent demo but hopefully it will be worth it. ===============Start====================== Dear Sir Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, the demo you have is not one that we have authorised for release. Hence, many of the options within the demo are non existent i.e. 3Dfx, joystick etc. However, you should find a more stable demo from our website very shortly.
