I downloaded RACE demo and when trying to install it hangs early at a DX install screen? Anyone else have this issue?

My installation went fine, but once I start the demo and click on "options" the sound locks up, loops for a while and then the whole machine crashes into a bios reset, just like GTR did after a re-installation a while ago when clicking on "internet". Everything else runs fine (even GTL and GTR2), so this must be something simbin-related I guess. Cheers, uwe -- GPG Fingerprint: 2E 13 20 22 9A 3F 63 7F 67 6F E9 B1 A8 36 A4 61
Weve now got a bunch of versions of DX9C floating around. I was using the Aug version and had issues but the Oct version fixed it. You might try the latest version of DX.

I got it thanks. Waiting was the trick. Wow! Very disappointed. Of course I was skeptical when I saw it was EIDOS. I had hoped for better.
