I can not get gpl to run at all. When I enter the game the mouse pointer goes crazy and then the game locks up. I have heard people talking about glide drivers. I have the 2.54 glide drivers. Can any one send me (or direct me to a place were I can obtain the older glide drivers) the older glide drivers. I did get it working once then tried to reinstall, and now nothing. Thanks for any help, in advance. ray

I just reinstalled GPL after learning of the patch. I completely uninstalled then reinstalled from CD, then patched to 1.1. Now I can't get by the setup screens without a lockup. Serious lockup, have to hold the off switch for 4 seconds to get it to reboot. Mouse pointer locks and that's it. It seems I remember this from back when I first installed it, but don't remember what the deal was. PII400 w/128 meg (2) Monster 3DII's SLI w/v207, glide 2.54 Win98 Wingman Formula Force with newest Monstersound MX200 Is this the one that didn't work with the latest M3D drivers? Guess I'll go look for some older drivers first. Any other ideas?

I'm e-mailing you both the dll you need, just stick it in your GPL directory. Mark > I just reinstalled GPL after learning of the patch.
