Just installed everything (including the cars) and when I run N2 the program crashes just before the intro screen. My system: Cyrix 200+ 40mb RAM no 3d card UNIVBE not installed.. Any suggestions? Cheers.

Did it ever run before? Prob#1-Cyrix, Prob#2-no 3d card. I have the same problem with my P2-400 with 128megs and STB V4400 AGP card. I have gave up on it. I have tried everything to get it to run, and no go. This is without any add-ons at all. I have gotten a lot of responses from this group on my problem, but none seem to work. I have N2 and the BGN Expansion Pack with the patches. It runs on my old AMD K6-233 in 3dfx fine, but I gave that to my son. So now I am without my N2.........I am very hesitant to buy N1999 because of this problem too. Good luck......hope it is better than mine.

How many track directories do you have?? N2 has a limit I think of 16 or 18. the BGN expansion ups that to 32 and although I don't have it, I have heard NR299 allows possibly up to 64. If yer running the Touring cars...(good choice btw) move all the oval track dirs out of the N2\tracks folder and you should be up and running.

It maybe a problem with your video card not being able to switch from the mode for the intro smack video. Try running it directly from the nascar2.exe file instead. Or edit the n2.bat file and remove the smackply line. -- **************************** Michael E.
