GPL Black track surface

After installing and enjoying GPL for 4 weeks with no problems(other than staying on the track) I took my computer in to have a printing problem checked out. They suggested, and performed a reformat of the hard drive. Then reinstalled Windows98. Then installed GPL, and now most of the track surface and grandstands are completely black. I have deleted and reinstalled 3 times. System is PII350, 64 mgs, Diamond Monster 3DII 12 mg.(remember, I ran for 4 weeks with no problems) What could have changed? Thanks in advance, Scott Hieronymus Scott696 on Ten

You must install the latest driv. for the video-card.

Hey Scott check the drivers for your voodoo 2 make sure they are the latest...you might be using an old driver

I believe you should install driver 2.03 instead of 2.05 or something to that effect. Check some older posts at the Apex.

Try this: Goto display properties then background and set wallpaper to none, than change the display setting to 16bit hicolor. This worked for me in WIN98 using ELSA Victory II agp Banshee. Seems like wallpaper in win98 causes texture trashing in gpl. Hope this help Mark Liermann BTW: This game is awesome baby!

Where can I get ver 2.03? I can only find 2.05 at Diamond's site and my CD has 2.01?
