I had the same problem. I have a very similar system. I have two Canopus 12 meg V2 boards, so I had to put the Canopus driver in the GPL folder, driver ver. 2.51. Still, I had to clock my system back to 300/66 to get it to load GPL, and then choose the generic controller driver, calibrate, setup controller, then choose direct input driver, calibrate, setup controller. Then and only then would GPL load and run stable at 464. hope that helps

The problem is the DX6 driver's Glide2.54. Until 3Dfx fixes the problem, take the glide2x.dll from the non-DX6 reference drivers (it's version 2.53) and copy it to your GPL directory. Eric wheel.

Hi, When I get into the game, it hangs in the option menu (usually in controller setup). I have C464, 12M V2 SLI (different board) with V2 DX6 reference driver and patched SLI driver, 128M Ram, DX6.1 installed. I can run other games without problem, eg, Quake2, NFS3, Vipra Racing etc. I already choose glide in the 3d card option. Also, I am using T2 wheel. Any suggestion would be appreciated. -- Voodoo 3dfx games lover

Dump the glide and re-install your drivers. Just a thought. Phil >Hi, >When I get into the game, it hangs in the option menu (usually in >controller setup).
