Get it at http://www.3dfiles.com/patches/colinmcraerally.shtml Patch fixes: Copy protection fixed. Medium and Full installations - Rally School hang fixed. Australia 3 hang over jump fixed. Qmixer sound file errors & conflicts fixed. Force feedback self-centering added. Improved graphic card support. Dithering enabled. Config file retained after uninstallation (keeps highscores & controller settings). And to think that I lent my CD away YESTERDAY! Ouch... /petern

My copy of Colin allways crashed while loading the 5th stage of Australia. With 1.4, it finally works perfect! Andre

>My copy of Colin allways crashed while loading the 5th stage of >Australia. With 1.4, it finally works perfect! Hmmm, strange. I have the same problem, but after installing the 1.4 patch the problem still exists :-( I did find this on the Codemaster's web page in the Technical Support section: "Problem: I've got a Voodoo2 card with the latest drivers, and my PC hangs as it tries to load Stage 5 in Australia. Solution: The problem you are experiencing is mainly due to the Voodoo2 card and their new drivers. We have found that, with these two combinations, the game seems to exit after stage 5 in Australia. The solution to this is to simply reload the game at the stage prior to the crash, but set it on to the primary card, i.e. Device 0 and default. Once this stage has been completed, save the game and reload it but this time set it on to Device 1 and Default. Now you can carry on with the game as normal." I just tried this and it worked (my Device 0 is a Matrox Millennium G200)! Maurice van der Werf.
