After Installing and running Nascar 4 demo on a Windows 2000 system with
Sb Live (+Liveware 3.0 for w2k)
Geforce 2 (with 6.31 detonator drivers)
Directx 7.0a (the one which comes with OS)
I get the following symptons:
GPL often runs twice the normal speed after running N4 - I can tell that
running GPL with double speed is WICKED experience... the fps-counter stays
at 36fps and the sound is normal, but a lap at silverstone takes about 40s
(stopwatch checked).
I really can tell that the cause for the problem is anything other than N4,
because the problem occured after only installing the demo. I haven't tried
uninstalling the N4 demo yet, as I'm hoping that someone will come up with a
solution for this. I have re-installed all my drivers, but no dice.
Sad is the fact that if my system won't work on Sunday for FGPLC league
race, I will have to forget about N4 demo for now. Untill then, I'm willing
to test anything to get both games to run :)
Help?!
Can Eric / Papy comment on this?

I had that in the beginning of Win2K time.
I never really found out what it was, but re-installing GPL did the
trick. Even reinstalling into *another* directory, then just removing
that did the trick. Probably a driver *somewhere*.

I know, ouch, when I though the problem was gone I went into VROC and
ouch it was back, screwing up everybody else's times; it was really
nasty.

not very funny...
This means that I either have to uninstall N4 demo, or boot to w98 every
time I like to play GPL.... and neither option is nice :(
Maybe Papy messed some common files in here....not sure
