GT Legends crashes

Hello, I've got a copy of GTL, installed it, the game starts, I can set up options and all I want but when I get to the start of the game I get a window saying that GTL has crashed, bla bla bla with the interesting windows details and I have to go back to the desktop. I use a Geforce 5700 board whoich is running GTR, GPL, F1C and TRACKMANIA (that's fun) for instance. I've upgraded with the 1.1 patch and the same shit happens, what could I check ? Thanks for the help -- Email contact http://cerbermail.com/?ltQ8eCFmRa

If you goto the Gt Legends website - you'll see that they have a link to a patch for the version of Starforce that was used with it. Starforce would cause some computers to crash when running the game - which would normally cause a full restart. Have a look at the patches section of http://www.gt-legends.com/support_en.php Quoted from the GT Legends website: " StarForce have issued an updated driver which should fix the reboot/BSOD problem which may be experienced on some systems when running the GT Legends demo. To install this update please download the "SFUPDATE tool" provided on the following web page: " Just another reason for not using anything protected by Starforce if you ask me. Ironhand

Hello, Thanks for the tips, I did that and the same thing happens, as soon as I exit the menus I have the same crash window telling me that GTL will stop because of a problem. I have 91.33 nvidia drivers, athlon 3.3 and 1.250 Gigs of ram on XP SP2. Thanks for the helpS -- Email contact http://cerbermail.com/?ltQ8eCFmRa

Did GTL suddenly stop working, or has it never run on your machine successfully? I had a Starforce issue a while back that caused GPL to crash during the CD check. Previously, it had been working perfectly. Unfortunately, the "fix" (after days of trying many things to get GTL to work) was to re-install Windows XP. After that, everything was fine.

Never worked, the cd protection works fine, the menu loads but I think it's more a graphic problem because tha game crashes when the display changes from the menu to the "race" view.... -- Email contact http://cerbermail.com/?ltQ8eCFmRa

What shader have you selected in the GTL configuration program? Try the various options. You might want to go back to an 80 or 84 version of the nvidia drivers. Or try the 91.45 that's now available although I think that's mainly 7950 GX2 fixes. Andi. . "Txl" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:op.tehfmulkarkwbw@acer...

I would definitely mess with different video drivers, and then check to see if all is well with Direct X 9.0c. I would then start to delete (or move) various video files from the GTL directory which have nothing to do with the game-- like opening videos and such. (Doing this one at a time.) The problem you're having is a video problem, that's pretty obvious (or it could, possibly, be sound related). If you have another video card laying around, if all else fails I might try swapping cards and seeing what happens. Alanb

Probably worth checking if you are not "Forcing" AA either, set to "Let application manage" and don't take any until you get GTL running. =[O-)] :dDriver:
