I got installed the last MonsterII drivers from diamonds site and directx6 ..I use W98.. When I try to run the game stucks in the main GPL screen. please can someone help me?? Kostis
I got the same problem with the same computer, except it won't even start when I try to run the game. My computer acts like it is an old 486 system. ctl+alt+del will then reset the computer and it works fine then, but still no gpl. So if anyone knows a solusion it would be great. thanks. Alexander M.

It has to do with the Active Movie player. Try renaming the AVI file in the GPL folder to -- well a backup name :) Under the type column, look for 'AVI' or Active Movie. This should make GPL not find the file and continue on it's merry way. If this fails -- you can always put the file back because you kept the backup file. Jason.
