Hi,
I have a problem with a COMPAQ Deskpro EN SFF P650 512MB RAM Intel BX 82443 chipset with an ATI Rage 3D AGP 2x onboard AGP Controller. The system runs under Win98SE and is normally doing a fine job. The game itself is running just fine on another machine with an ATI Rage II AGP card.
The problem is that (with various drivers) I can't get that game to run properly. Either it crashes back to the desktop when loading the main menu or it tries to load the selected track and crashes immediately after finishing. I also tried the drivers and combinations from BigZ's site - none of them lets the game run properly.
I have also tried with Win XP and various drivers/combinations but also with no luck, instead it crashes the whole machine or hangs it. (STOP Error in ati2drad.dll/ati2drab.dll when I have a BSOD).
I hope someone has experienced similar problems and maybe found a solution.
I also thought about buying a Radeon 9250 PCI board with 128 MB additionally - maybe anybody knows, whether I'd have more luck trying that instead.
Any comments, suggestions or hints are highly appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance and all the best for the new year,
Florian
