I should be asking, can viper be run under xp at all? Can i run it with the original version? If so, how? -- Luke -=87=-

Yes. You need to download the beta patch for it though... -Larry "Luke Phillips" <(NOSPM)[email hidden]> wrote in message news:CB6u9.23672$[email hidden]... > I should be asking, can viper be run under xp at all? Can i run it withthe

Not needed if you have the patch. -Larry "Jussi 'Igor' Koukku" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > On Fri, 25 Oct 2002 07:42:26 GMT, "Luke Phillips" > <(NOSPM)[email hidden]> wrote something like this: > > >I should be asking, can viper be run under xp at all?

I think the threading is messed up here. I believe -nocanary is to run it without the CD. It does not make the game compatible with XP. You have to have the beta patch for that. I have no idea if -nocanary works with the beta patch. I don't need it because I use Daemon Tools. -Larry "Jussi 'Igor' Koukku" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > On Fri, 25 Oct 2002 07:42:26 GMT, "Luke Phillips" > <(NOSPM)[email hidden]> wrote something like this: > > >I should be asking, can viper be run under xp at all?

Not necessarily, but it does fix the sound problem... >I have no idea if -nocanary works with the beta patch. I don't need it >because I use Daemon Tools. It obviously "works" with the beta patch as I still use the same shortcut to start VR as I did before the patch ;-) -- - Igor -
How exact do you add the "-nocanary" switch, my target looks like this: "C:\Viper Racing\Viper Racing.exe" "Jussi 'Igor' Koukku" <[email hidden]> skrev i melding news:[email hidden]... > On Fri, 25 Oct 2002 07:42:26 GMT, "Luke Phillips" > <(NOSPM)[email hidden]> wrote something like this: > > >I should be asking, can viper be run under xp at all?
