Excuse me if this has been asked before, but can anybody tell me if the Act Labs Force RS + Shifter work alright with DirectX8a? Visited the Act Labs site but couldn't find any notice about it, or anything about updated drivers for dX8a. Greetings, Blues

Blues, Yes. I loaded DirectX 8 from the N4 CD and my system immediately became unstable and rebooting, problems, etc. It was a mess ;) I installed DirectX 8a and everything is back to normal and I gained about 6 to 10 fps. My ACT-LABS and Force RS are working fine with it. -- Scott B.

I've got an Act Labs Force RS on my box and the driving in the game seems very twitchy and overly sensitive to input even when the steering ratio is as high as it can go. Could you tell me what your setting are? Thanks. On Sat, 10 Feb 2001 19:40:46 -0500, "Scott B. Husted" <[email hidden]> wrote:
