Folks, Installed it last night. After the initial installation, the first first attempted just rebooted the machine, interesting. The second attempt started OK, however in the race itself the screen is just very, very grey with a faint outline of the track and the driver, anyone seen anything like this? System: Windows Me GeForce 2 (Asus V7100/T AGP) Athlon 1.3Ghz Seagate hard drive SoundBlaster LIVE! 1024 MK Microstar ATX K7TPro2A Socket A Thanks Ian -- I used to be indecisive, but now I am not so sure....

I am having a similar problem. I posted earlier but there might not be a fix since it is only a demo.I can occasionaly get sound but the video never works right and occasionaly the thing just locks up. Good luck, I hope you can get it to work. Mike "Ian Marsh" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

What driver version are you guys running? The latest 28.32 drivers cleared up alot of problems for me in WinME. I have not tried the f12002 demo so I have no idea if it works or not for that. MadDAWG
Works fine for me with 28.32 on a GF4. Andi. "MadDAWG" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I think you are the only person in the world using WinME still. -- -- "MadDAWG" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > What driver version are you guys running?

> I think you are the only person in the world using WinME still. Nope there is at least two of us in this thread alone. For me WinME is way more stable than Win98SE ever thought about being, and you couldn't pay me to run XP. MadDAWG

The 28.32 drivers fixed that problem for me. Game looks pretty good so far. "Ian Marsh" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Personally, I have a triple boot with Win98/XP/Linux and find uses for all three OS's. But I do run almost all my games on Win98 still.
yes but where is the demo located for download ?? "Strider" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I had a very similar problem... except all I saw was a light blue...if I entered the demo with an external view I would only see some of the car and everything else was light blue...... I changed my AGP Aperture size from 256 to 128 in the BIOS and after that it worked just fine. "Ian Marsh" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I suppose this is politically incorrect in this group, but I have always liked the GP? series more :-/ No harm in trying though :-| Thanks Ian. > > MadDAWG > > -- Diet products must work you only see fat people consuming them
