greetings: Seems my server crashed so if this is a repost I humbly apologize. I installed F1RS on my new 350MHz system with 64 mb and Windows 98 pre-installed on the machine. I'm using a Diamond Viper 330 and a Diamond Monster 3D II for video cards. I'm also using Creative Labs Awe 64 as a sound card. Everything works fine in other 3dFX games. For F1RS though, I install fine but when I start the program I get the whirling 3dFX logo, then a fade to the Ubisoft logo which is really distorted then a fade to black and then nothing. Ctrl-Alt-Del allows me to end task and return to the desktop. So can any of the wise sages out there assist me? Please post here and/or thanks mike davis

Try patch version 1.09, it should resolve the black screen problem. M. S. Davis heeft geschreven in bericht ... >greetings: >Seems my server crashed so if this is a repost I humbly apologize. >I installed F1RS on my new 350MHz system with 64 mb and Windows 98 pre-installed
