"DIVIDE BY ZERO" error with GP2

2 posts by 2 people · 28 Oct 1996 - 29 Oct 1996

Have anyone ever got a DIVIDE BY ZERO error message with gp2? I had this message when I selected "car setup" from the pit menu while in free practice of Brazil in a world championship. I fortunately saved my game just before that happened, and everytime I reload it and try to select car setup, I find myself in DOS with this error message. I just can't select car setup anymore in that game! What can I do? anything to do to prevent this from happening again? thanks all JF

It sounds
like a disk problem to me (a corrupted save file). You could try: 1. scandisk of chkdisk on you hard drive 2. comparing the size of the save file with the size of other save files. 3. I thibk GP2 doesn't like write caching turned on in smartdrv (but I don't know this for definite) but this may be a cause - check you smartdrv startup options. -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ | Peter Wales | | IT Operational Services | | HP Bulmer Ltd "The Worlds Largest Cider Maker" | +---------------------------------------------------------------+
