But not that bad... Two main things I've seen... 1. The corrupted graphics at the race screen. Seems to happen mostly on-line. 2. A couple of quits-to-the-desktop, but rare. I just yesterday switched to OpenGL. I'll see if that helps any. My fps sure took a big jump, by 20fps or more! Larry

Larry, if you don't list your system specs, your problems don't mean anything to anyone.

Naff driver issues, is my guess. What are your specs? Gerry

I wasn't really after that aspect of it.

Ok... I wasn't really after troubleshooting, but here ya go :) Pentium IV 2.53. Ti4400. Was running 30.89's, but trying 41.someting or anothers right now. I'll probably switch back as I don't really like the new design much. The corrupted graphics have been cited by others, and it doesn't happen enough to put a finger on.

Ive had corrupted graphics on exit a couple times. Once it was so bad I had to reset. I use the 9700 Pro using cat3 latest and dx9. I use the DX rasterizer also. P4T533-C mobo. I hear the next version of cats will correct a few issues. 850e mobo Larry? Do you use intel's app accelerator? Mitch "Larry" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:1pS1a.21919$[email hidden]...

No, ABIT IT7-Max2. Yes, I use the App Accellerator. Larry "Mitch_A" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:nWS1a.3455$[email hidden]... > Ive had corrupted graphics on exit a couple times.
