I have successfully downloaded and installed BIOS 1.3, having heard it fixes the mode switch fault - it does, but introduces a worse one! Running the game now causes a loud clicking noise to come from the PC - the main CPU box, not via my speakers. Can this be fixed? what causes the noise? Will it damage my PC? Should I revert to BIOS 1.2 - if so, where can I get it from? PC set up is : o PPro 200 o Mystique 2MB o 32 MB RAM o AWE32 soundcard Regards - Melv.

Hi Melfyn! I had the same problem. Do you run GP2 in win95? Try to run it in pure DOS mode! CU Andreas

Hello, I got this. The game was on minimal install. The noises went away after a full install. This is a pain in the ass. Hope this helps Cheers, Andrew
