I wasn't completely disragarding it, I was seeing if there were any other explanations because I obviously don't want to rush out to either return TDU it or spend 200$ for a state-of-the-art graphics card. I know my specs are the most likely cause for the crashing, but I need to be absolutely sure that there are no other factors that played a role. Calm down. (and the xp3200 does run at about 2.2 ghz, but it has the equlvalent performance of a faster Pentium, or at least that's the rumor)

Just so all of you know, I have tried everything in the tech support section on Atari's website. I thought maybe there were some home-brew solutions to teh crashingzorz.

How is a 3.2GHz computer on par with a ps2? And if it were a compatibility issue with my GFX card, wouldn't I have at least gotten an error message or a blue screen? And yeah, I was absolutely serious. I beat Vice City at 6 fps. It was actually an advantage because it slowed the game down enough so that I had more reaction time when something happened. It's actually kind of funny because I used to own at driving on my computer, then I played it at my friend's house, and it took me a few crashes to get used to the speed. :P

Sorry, kinda dead thread, but I just have to say something to that dude: Nice hacks. Notice the blue/shininess that sometimes pops up on people when he dies? That thar be ESP. I know because I used to hack 1.6 as a n00b. I'm not particularly proud of that. EDIT: Oh crap, it looks as if he uses Furious SP... small world.

Lovely indeed. I got 3-6 fps at all times. Beat the game that way :P Most games that didn't support my graphics card ran, though. Maybe crashed and f'ed up, but at least launched. TDU is having issues with ATI cards as it is, so I'm hoping that it has something to do with the ATI part and not the "9250 Pro" part of my card. And yeah, hopefully after the next patch it'll start working. If not, then it's probably my gfx card. I just spent like 300$ on new innards (cause my previous motherboard randomly fried), so I won't bother buying a new card just for the game. I hope they'll let me return it.

That never stopped me before. I was playing Vice City on a 667MHz comp with 64mb of ram and a 32mb graphics card. It lagged, but it worked.

I'm a demo racer known in-game simply as "Rob". I can drift pretty well with my Logitech Momo, and Act-Labs Shifter + Pedals (old-style ones). I made some really nice skins, but I might have lost them as a result of formatting that was done 'bout 2 weeks ago. I also ran a server back in December (West Island Drifters, in case any of you might have heard of it).

Well, I bought the game earlier today, I was really looking forward to playing it. I waited patiently while it took its sweet time to install, gazing hungrily at the uber-sexy art/screenshots displayed. "OH MY GOD!", I exclaimed, "It's finished!!!" :excited::bananajump: *quick reboot just in case* As the sound of the windows startup sound filled my ears once more, I waited a bit for my processes/apps to fully load up before I launched the game. My hands trembled as I double-clicked the icon. "Yes! Only a few more minutes untill I get to pl...":wtf: It crashed. Not to worry, I'll just launch it again! Long story short: It launches, displays a window, maximizes it, then crashes to my desktop without a single explanation. No error messages, sounds, or anything. It's a real tease because the screen stays black just long enough so that I think it's about to launch (it gets me EVERY time lol), and then crashes. Payed 45$ CAD for this... from what I've read, it looks as if Atari just sorta popped the Xbox 360 version's cd into a computer, saw that it ran, and stuck a PC-DVD label on it. It's alright, though; Beta testing is for queers anyway. Is there a work-around for the crashing, or will I have to wait the undisclosed amount of time for the patch? Specs: AMD Athlon XP3200 512 MB ram ATI Radeon 9250 Pro - 256mb Integrated Nvidia sound card And btw: Hi, how's it going. I'll be around a lot from now on... that is, if I can get TDU to work...
