I've got Gp2lap and all that, but I don't get any indication of anything different when I run the game... how can I tell if it is set-up properly? Both machines have the same set-up...
Don't forget to launch GP2 with the GP2Lap command !!! >I've got Gp2lap and all that, but I don't get any indication of anything >different when I run the game... how can I tell if it is set-up >properly? Both machines have the same set-up...

I seem to be able to get the 2 putas to find each other , but when they both try to launch one hangs (locks up)?? I am trying to run it on a o/c celery 333 to 416 and a plain old p75 , is it possible that they go out of sync b/c of the huge difference in speed? Capp
