Hi all I have a very annoying "lock up" problem with this game I've tried running it on my GEForce card, with both the drivers that came with the card, Creative, and the latest from NVidia and I've tried running it on my Quantum3D Obsidian II X24 card, with Quantum's last drivers, I can't get 3Dfx' latest reference drivers to work properly If I use the GEForce card I can't run the Normandie track and one of the others, on the Quantum card (basically a V2 SLI setup) I can run every track, but not more than 2 or 3 in succession, and just quitting to Win98 don't help, I must reboot This is getting very annoying as I'm trying very hard to enjoy this game, which I think is the best of the series since the original NFS System as follows P3-700E on ASUS CUBX mobo, not overclocked (yeah I know, but I don't have time to mess about with it right now :-), Creative GEForce PRO (latest ref drivers)and Quantum3D Obsidian II X24 (last Quantum drivers, 3Dfx' reference drivers mess up the colors), SB Live 1024 (latest drivers) and 256 MB of RAM No other game/sim gives me any problems at all, I can play N3 on either card for hours and GPL on the Quantum3D card for hours as well, any input will be greatly appreciated Beers and cheers (uncle) Goy "Team Mirage" http://www.teammirage.com/ "The Pits" http://www.theuspits.com/ * Spam is for losers who can't get business any other way * "Spamkiller" http://www.spamkiller.com

Turn off the "Lens Flare"! Go to"options", then "graphics", then "advanced" and turn off the Lens Flare option. This will cure all lockups! Sal V. "Goy Larsen" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
