I installed a win7 in another pc and it works good, accept gp4. It takes more than a minute after running gpxpatch to appear the game.
If a gp4.exe its already loaded in the memory, and I run another gp4 its starts good, but of course after a while appears a window: "GP4.EXE its already running!"

Does anyone knows how to fix it!

I think the dxwrapper is for games who don't run at all or has video issues while running.

There was a same nonsense. About 2 years ago at a forum there was a decision: to clean autoupdating of any program (and what - I do not remember).
I will try to look.

I use win7 and it runs PERFECTLY 60fps at max 35%PO with dxwrapper. Take a chance.

35% PO, nice.

All i have to do is to place all files into GP4.exe directory, right?

Wich settings have to be set to 1 in the .ini file?

Thanks to all, but in special salvasirignano!(H)
I could fix it with salvasirignano´s bat. Now it works great!(Y)
It should be on the FAQ too.

Thanks Again!

Copy these files into GP4 folder:

d3d8.dll
dxwrapper.dll
dxwrapper.ini
winmm.dll

At ini file set D3d8to9 = 1
