I am just setting up a new machine as follows: MoBo: Abit KG7-Raid CPU: Athlon 1.4 Memory: 512 Crucial DDr Graphics: Asus V8200 Geforce 3 Audio: Creative SB Live! Player NIC: 3com OfficeConnect Modem: USR 56K external on Com 1. OS: ME Wheel: MSFF (USB) Sims: GPL, N4, GP3, SCGT, Rally Trophy I have a few questions which hopefully someone won't mind answering. 1. As I understand it I should try to make sure that my video card doesn't share a IRQ with anything else and therefore you shouldn't put anything into PCI Slot 1. I've done this but ME is reporting that both the video and audio cards are sharing IRQ 10. I've moved the audio card to other slots but it stills uses IRQ 10. Anyhing I'm doing wrong? 2. At the moment I'm using the drivers that came with the hardware. Should I be using different ones and if so which ones? 3. I remember sometime ago posts giving optimum modem settings for on-line racing. Has anyone got the details or a link? 4. I've been racing GPL regular and have kept up to date with patches updates etc for that but not for the other sims. Which patches, updates etc should I be installing for N4 GP3 and SCGT? Thanks in advance for any help given. Cheers Lee
