andrmgic21 0 Posted July 21, 2000 Hey, I just got my new Athlon 800 mhz and i installed NFS 5 again after I formatted for the switch from a PII to the Athlon and now it will get past the cd check and get to the loading screen and hang up. The harddrive is working overtime, but the game isnt going anywhere. It worked fine on my PII 350, but it doesnt seem to anymore. I've been reading on this board a bit and this sounds like the 800 meg memory problem, but i never saw how to fix it. I havent had a chance to try deleting gimmie.dll yet, but some other suggestions would be appreciated as well so I can try alot of things at once. Thanks!! Btw, my system specs are: Amd Athlon 800 Mhz Soyo K7VIA MB 256 MB PC133 SDRAM Diamond Viper V770 32mb (TNT2 Ultra) Share this post Link to post
andrmgic21 0 Posted July 21, 2000 Well, i tried deleting gimmie.dll and that didnt change anything. I also set the maximum page file size to double my system ram. Still didnt help..Maybe a problem with the nvidia 5.30 drivers? Share this post Link to post
Maniac_NL 0 Posted July 23, 2000 just set youre page file to the recomanded value and it works just fine :-) Share this post Link to post
andrmgic21 0 Posted July 24, 2000 hehe. i found out that the fix was even easier than that. I had formatted and forgot to download the compatibility fix for win2k from microsoft's website. That little 300k patch fixed the problem :-) Share this post Link to post
