That's strange, for a system like that... have you noticed anything like that in other games?

I did fint it odd as well, no other game have done this and my temperatures seems fine.

I will install windows ME and test it there. lets hope its solved in the original.

Have you tried sticking it in compatibility mode? My GPL crashs without compatibility mode on

right click on the GP4.exe and click the compatiblity mode tab, select which OS to run it under. I suggest win98

Never do that for games. Programs its fine, but emulating another OS while playing a game is a sure way to really slow the game to a crawl, espically modern complex games like GP4.
