what is the deal, NR2003, locks up or just reboots the computer without any warning. I have been racing Papy sims since Indy 500 and never have I had so many problems. I've seen other post about simular cases but no resolution. System ASUS P4C800 Deluxe 1gig RAM 120x2 HD's ATI Radeon 256meg 9800 PRO Audigy 2 XP All the latest drivers and bios's I can find. Some Please HELP.

took me several months to get where n2003 would run earlier this year. Turns out my problem was a bad ti4200 and bios need updating to correctly deal with my Raid array. I feel for you, know for a fact how frustrating it gets. Hang in there.

try going into your bios and setting AGP to 4x insted of 8x. i had problems with N2003 freezing up and this fixed it for me. Neil "jon" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:uXVrb.59116$[email hidden]... > took me several months to get where n2003 would run earlier this year.Turns

When I bought my new computer, Nascar either hung on the intro or CTD. Brought the computer back, they updated the vid drivers on my Nvidia card (the ones with the card were several months old) and that fixed the problem Mike

Mjones... let all of us know if you fix it, someone else might get same problem... Anyway, let me check with you Some things A: are you attempting to run OPENGL or Directx (on the 3d video setup?) Second, how far do you get before it just up and dies? are you racing, almost into the car, in the track selection screens? or is it dying as soon as you launch the game? B: (I could be assuming too much here) I also assume XP-Home? and you are on it as administrator or equal account right? If not you might have to click the properties of the launching Icon, and let XP "Run As" the person (or another account you make that is only for launching some games, so that your kids can run games from their logon, but don't get the who does have administrative privileges... (full control of the XP system) So like at my home, Jar has the limited account, but when he launches his Icon (which also switches "last_player" to his name, it runs with my credentials... If I understand it right, doing it this way, will just let the game be able to have Read Write so like when ini's and stuff change in the papyrus folder (If I understand this correctly). Or I recommend XP Pro where you can lock out some logins from the control panels & other settings but they can use the computer just fine? which I what I am planning to do soon.

I've tried both opengl and d3d does the same thing. Some times I can drive a few laps without problems but, soon as I hit ESC boom, reboots, other times if I race long enough it just reboots as well. I am using XP, home ver, and I am the admin user. Where is Eric Bush when you need him... "Sting32" <Plowboy is Stingre.AT.y!> wrote in message news:3fb1909f$[email hidden]...
