I cannot get the demo of GP Legends to work at all I've tried both versions from mag cover disks I have a P166 MMX 32Mb ram with a Maxi Gamer Phoenix 16Mb Banshee Board All my other games work fine - I'm using DirectX 6 and the Guillemot driver kit 1.03 I would welcome any suggestions? Ta - Neil
Does it just dump you back to the desktop? There's something about this in the readme, I think. I'm going from memory here and it was several months ago, but I believe the readme mentions that you had to delete the gpl.ini or gpl.cfg file and restart. For what it's worth, I ran the GPL demo (both Monza and Watkins Glen) on a P5-233MMX w/ Guillemot Phoenix PCI, so it will run on a Banshee. There are several different demo versions floating around, so that may be causing problems. I had problems with one of the Monza demos that disappeared when I downloaded a different version.

> I cannot get the demo of GP Legends to work at all > I've tried both versions from mag cover disks I think some of the demo's installed two versions of GPL, (I think one was in a temp directory while GPL sets itself up, but the program does not delete it when its finished) so make sure you are trying to run the *proper* GPL installation and not just the temporary one!!!! But why bother with demo's, go out and buy the real thing man!!!! 8-) *Peter* #:-)
