Since I've been fortunate enough to afford the new ELSA GeForce-2 GTS and I've been coming here for help for years, I thought I'd try to help others out by posting which racing sims run and which have problems or won't run at all. I just got the card yesterday so I haven't tried that many yet. As I re-install and test more sims, I'll post more results. If this is not the place to do this then by all means just say so. Brief hardware description: Athlon-800 in a Abit-Ka7, ELSA Gladiac GeForce-2 GTS with stock out of the box drivers, SBLive +MP3 (liveware 3.0) and WIN98SE w/DX7a. Here's what runs: NFS PU (runs really, really well even in 32bit color) Nascar-3 (not as pretty as Glide and not as fast) Nascar Legends (same as N3) F1-2000 (Still a PIG) GP500 (runs really, really well even in 32bit color) Here's what doesn't: TOCA-2 (blue screen of death right after clicking on icon) Nascar-2000 (starts to load then goes black with hourglass cursor in center of screen, have to push reset button) Sal V.

Update on the GeForce-2 GTS: I have changed drivers! I'm now using reference drivers from NVidia (5.16) and both TOCA2 and Nascar-2000 work perfectly! Also tried Superbike-2000 and all I can say is "I'm speechless". Sal V.
