DX7 Nascar 3 won't boot

Hi, has anyone installed DX7 and had problems with N3 not loading? I fire up N3 and it freezes up on me. I can't uninstall DX7 either. Can anyone give me some suggestions? Thanks

No problems with DX7 and N3. Try updating all your video drivers. Jerry Morelock

nope no probs here, drivers are the problem normally :) Spencer Guest

While were on the subject does anyone think DX7 will fix my sound problem. As of now i get really crappy sound in N3, GPL and every other game i run under windows. DOS games (like GP2) the sound works fine. I have a Crystal CS461x wave sound for my sound equipment (yes i know its almost 2 years old). I think when i installed DX6 with SCGT it messed something up and i havent been able to as of yet fix it. Thought about maybe going back to DX5 but im not sure if that would work either. Any help would be appreciated. Chris

If updated drivers for video card doesn't work, try disabling sound card with device manager. I had same problem and ended up buying a new sound card Hank >Hi, has anyone installed DX7 and had problems with N3 not loading? I fire >up N3 and it freezes up on me. I can't uninstall DX7 either.

Perhaps re-installing N3 will do the trick dh > Hi, has anyone installed DX7 and had problems with N3 not loading? I fire > up N3 and it freezes up on me. I can't uninstall DX7 either. Can anyone > give me some suggestions? Thanks

Ditch that pile of junk and get something decent like a SB Live! I have a $35 SBPCI64 and it rocks in all games. -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes. cisko [AT] ix [DOT] netcom [DOT] com >While were on the subject does anyone think DX7 will fix my sound problem.

I'm using an old Soundblaster 16 and DX7 seems to have cleared up the fuzzy, staticy noise I was getting in N3. Zog

says... Thanks for the help guys. I ended up reformatting my HD and starting all over again. Now it works just fine. Now if I could only get my gear ratios right :).
