GPLDemo doesn't work on my AMD k6-2....

Hi, I have the AMD K6-2 300, and unfortunately I can't get the gpldemo to work on my system. The game does startup normally, it then detects my joystick, so I get into the calibration screen. But the mouse doesn't work in the game.I can calibrate the stick, but without the mouse I can't do anything! Anybody familiar with this problem?? I have a Logitech cordless mouse. Any help would be appriciated. Regards, Gertjan

If it's one of the older demos (dated before Oct98) then you're outta' luck. The older ones only ran on the Pentiums....If it's the newer demo (with Monza and garage access), then it could be your chip...Have a look at the write up on the AMD K6 at Tom's Hardware Guide: http://www.tomshardware.com/ Cheers! Marc

Beg pardon? I was running the original demo on my K6-233 when it first appeared and then on my K6-2 300. I haven't tried the new demo, since I've got the full game, which I have never had a problem with. If everything works but the mouse, I'd say he should look at his mouse drivers, not the cpu.

Yeah removing the old mousedriver twice finally solved the problem (don't ask me why it didn't work the first time), thanks for the help!
