After a reinstall of Windows due to a change of my graphic card (from ATI Radeon 7500 to Gainward Geforce4 MX 460) I can't run GPL under D3D anymore. I installed all patches. When I wan't to load a track a window pops up saying, gpl couldn't load the replay system ("Wiederholungssystem konnte nicht geladen werden"). I tried running GPL under OGL, the track loaded, but with a framerate of about 1fps. Any help? thanks chris
DO you have more than 512MB RAM on a Win9X OS? -- Biz "Don't touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn't understand alloys and compositions and,......things with molecular structures,....and the....." - Ash Christopher Schuetz <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3dcbd41a$0$700$[email hidden]... > After a reinstall of Windows due to a change of my graphic card (from ATI > Radeon 7500 to Gainward Geforce4 MX 460) I can't run GPL under D3D anymore. > I installed all patches.

yes I do, I changed the line in the core.ini for systems with more then 512 MB. I think it has to do with the new Gainward-card, since I installed it, everything is crashing. "Biz" <[email hidden]> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:tgSy9.1523$[email hidden]...

Many many users have been running GPL with GF 2, 3, & 4's and not had any problems. I would suspect something like NOT getting your ATI drivers completely removed may be the culprit. also one of the forums at racesim central has fixed opengl file that should deliver much better graphics and speed than the papyrus patches do. Search RAS with Google groups for the link or search the racesim forums for opengl + gpl. Next(after backing up your registry) I would do a search thru your registry for all mentions of ATI drivers. Even possibly check ati websites for utilities that might remove old drivers. Finally the Nvidia 40.72 drivers are very fast and stable and there is a Win9x/me version available. Once again Make sure you properly UNinstall the old drivers before installing new ones...the enclosed readme file should have detailed instructions. finally have you turned off that backup and restore thingie in ME? dave henrie
Actually I didn't uninstall the at-drivers in the first try. But the new card caused problems even after a format-disk and reinstall of Win ME. Right now I have my old card back and everythings fine. Maybe I'll give it a new try.
