Thank you! I was sure I tried it but it works now :D.

How come when I try to export a carset to GP3 it says that I have to run Safedisc or GP3decryptor... I never had this problem until I reinstalled GP3edit.

I can run the game pretty easy on 7 but I have another problem.I cant calibrate the graphics of the game its give me CTD.Why?

you don't need to. on many cards, it brings up the graphic cal thing every time you load the game. First time u run the game, go into the graphics settings and change everything manually. the test thing works, (usually) so you can get a feel of how good/bad things are.

From my experience, the graphics cal thing has CTDd since around teh Ati X xxx series of cards (certainly happens on my X700 anyway)

I got Windows 7 and I got no problems installing it.

The computer is about 3 weeks old and it is still pretty fresh.

I tried to install Directx 11 and had a few problems, then I installed Directx 9 but it won't let me as it seems like that Directx 11 is already installed. I had a Quick Race and it seems ok although the PO is about 120% so I will do a bit more tweaking with the Graphics in the game.

Did your birth certificate come with an apology letter from Durex?

Hi,

i got a problem with win8. The game when he does his graphic calibration, everything goes fine, PO are below 40 and crash after. If i skip this calibration and try a race now PO are at 600 and 700... whats the problem ?

I got some other news on my problem, i've see everything go wrong only in HW version, in SW everything go perfectly. But the problems gpxpatch show nothing on SW.... Anyone with recent PC was able to run the game in HW without problem.

are you gaming with "onboard-grafic-chip"? -if so, forget HWmode, your system is to weak
if not, read here:
-> thread

The only trouble i have with Win7 is Gp3 asks me to calibrate graphic each time.
I say NO! and play.
Bye

Same here, no problem for me at all .... But I think that we could find a little fix for that 'problem' on Drafis homepage (as far as I remember)...

@shlund: i tried that fix, didn't work for me.
But i think it's a problem related to PC configuration (video card), so every PC a different issue.
Bye

I agree with you, claudio.
When i had a win98se and put in a nvidia card, it always asked to calibrate.
it has a dual output,and i tried the fix but didn't work for me.
Now, i'm working on xp with the same card and it runs fine.
I dont know why, i dont care anymore.

The game is very slow for me to on W7 64bit, has anyone got it to work?:/
