I just dl'd several of the new road tracks for N 2003 from the USpits.com. I started with the 2 Sebring version ( Day and Night). They installed fine but when I went to test them out I found that the tracks would not load with Computer opponents. I ran several laps on both tracks in practice session but can't run off-line races. I haven't tried on-line. I drove the Touring Car mod from the US PITS and even tried changing car sets but still with no luck. I backed up everything prior to installation some no harm done if I have to start over again. I dl'd several other tracks as well (Road America, Lime Rock, LeMans) but I want to get this sorted out first. P4 2.4 Gig 512 Mb memory 64 Mb video card TIA Timmy

I've also gotten a physical dump memory error a couple of times. Don't know if it's related or not. Also running XP home edition

It loaded and ran practice and then I skipped ahead to the race and that also worked fine. First I would verify that you have the latest version, v1.4 and next I'd double check that it was unzipped properly. into tracks/sebring, not tracks/tracks/sebring dh

I just can't seem to run the tracks with the AI cars... Havnet tried on-line yet... Could it be the 64MB video card? It tries to load it but can't find so that doesn't sound like the solution to me, but I'm far from an expert on this stuff... Thanks again in advance.. Timmy

My only guess then would be you may have your graphic settings too high for your video card. Try adding a few cars at a time, say 5 then 5 more for 10 then 5 more...keep doing that til the track won't load. That will at least give you a benchmark barrier. next try reducing the amount of cars seen and other graphic options. I haven't heard of anyone else complaining about the tracks not loading and for sure, there are plenty of 64meg vid card users out there. Good luck. dave henrie
