F1 2001 Mods Question

I know that this has been asked before, but I just changed video drivers on my system, and now the ALMS mod and GT Mod only load straight F12001. I believe that something needs to be changed in one of the ini files in each of the mods, but I don't recall what it is. Can anyone provide me the information to get these 2 mods running properly again? Thanks! Bert

Thanks for the tip, Dave. That did the trick -- err, sort of. My shortcuts now start up the correct mod, but the display for both mods is now very narrow horizontally. In other words, there is about 1 inch of black on both the right and left sides of the screen. This "narrowness" shows itself immediately upon starting up -- at the very first title screen -- and it remains that way for all screens. I don't have this problem with "pure" F1 2001. I seem to recall that the last time I changed video drivers, I had to copy/paste a lot more than the values from that line. Any idea how I can correct the screen "narrowness"? Thanks!

Copy from videoram to fsaa Is your card an ATI ? I think something has changed between the last and the second to last version of these drivers, the value for 1600 x 1200 as changed from being in the 80s to the 70s. What your seeing might be related to a wrong refresh rate....
