Don't know, but I have exactly the same problem. Just upgraded my PC and GP4 runs like a dream but frequently crashes to desktop making it impossible to play seriously. Frustrating or what? "Vesa Murtola" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:b4qgnn$i9r$[email hidden]...

What have you changed? Graphics card drivers? Graphics card? I think if you've changed anything you'll need to recalibrate the graphics in GP4. "Vesa Murtola" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:b4qgnn$i9r$[email hidden]...

Make sure all driver names in the game contain at least a first name and a last name seperated by a space. Bart
You need the patch guys ! The prob is caused by the controller-setup. 2 possibilities : 1) get the patch (easiest way imho), install it & everything should work 2) - delete the cfg-file - restart GP4 (should work now) - setup every device except the controller - exit gp4 (save Changes !) - restart GP4 - setup controller - on exiting GP4 never save the changes You'll have to setup the controller every time now... Better go & get the patch guys... Hope this helped... Vesa Murtola <[email hidden]> schreef in berichtnieuws b4qgnn$i9r$[email hidden]...

Hello, everyone. I have experienced the same crash problems with my GP4 game (patch v9.6 installed) � and worse! Whenever I tried to play, game would crash to desktop (with the familiar error message �GP4 has encounter a problem and will be shut down�) after 10-15 minutes of play (sometimes even less!). But that was not all: 9 out of 10 times computer would �stall� whenever I tried to see a Replay, and I had to restart Windows XP by hardware! Note that I have never rename any driver name! Well, I found the simplest way to run the game stable as a rock! And the solution is this: Do not skip the introductions! As simple as that! Just be patient a few seconds, don�t press any key to bypass �Microprose� or �GP4� intros, let the game guide you to the main menu and � play by the hours!!! I found this by chance! I wanted to show the game to a friend of mine and he asked me to let him see the intro before we would play. And so I did. The thing is that a moment ago I warned him that unfortunately my best game would crash after a while, but what a hell� It was worth it. Well, the game never crashed, and it didn�t ever crashed again by just playing both 2 intros. Since then I play by the hours, I watch Replays, I play other circuits after I�m bored with one, I watch new Replays, and I play and play and play�!!! Before this, I couldn�t even dream of something like that! Please let me know if this works for you, too. Mail me at [email hidden] Good luck. p.s. It a GREAT game, isn�t it?
