Mac user help needed for IndyCar II

I have a simple question: since I upgraded from 8.6 to system 9.1 on my beige G3/233 desktop, IndyCar II cannot run anymore, it quits quickly after the "splash screen". Anybody having a clue on a fix? This is the only game I have on my Mac to take out some stress... Thanks

Haven't a clue about Macs Daniel. Try putting a Papyrus or Eric Busch in the subject line perhaps Eric will pop in with some advice. 2nd, try the Sierra message forums at their website.

I don't know a lot about Macs, but can't you run an application in a "compatibility mode" (I know you can run OS 9 apps in OS X by restarting the Mac in OS mode or something along that line). Daniel wrote:

Thanks guys, while thinking about it, I had the idea to try to reinstall it. I'll post a follow-up on that solution...

Anybody having a clue on a fix? If I remember correctly if you manually set your screen size to 640X480 and colors down to 256 this problem disappears. You also gain more fps as an added bonus! :) > This is the only game I have > on > my Mac to take out some stress... If you like driving games supposedly Feral software (www.feral.co.uk) is porting EA's F1 2000 to the Mac any day now. Check their website for updates if interested. Take care. - Loren
