I downloaded star wars pod racing, it worked for a bit but now it keeps freezing when we go into a game.
os - windows xp
ddrram - 512
athlon - 2500+ (1.8ghz)
graphics/video card - radeon 9200, with 256 ddrram.

Is there any reason why it shouldnt work?

Any help appreciated because its driving us nuts trying to get it to work again!!

yes! it turns white, (or whatever the base color is on that level) but the rev counters still there and the sound. It says its not responding, if we actually manage to get out of it with out having to hit the reset!

Any clues?

It worked at first..... :rolleyes:

Download the patch from lucasarts' website, then apply the latest crack for that version of the game.

Thanks Cygnuz-y, you are the hero at the moment, weve just turned out a few laps on it and your ideas on windows98 have so far proved right as we changed the compatibility in the properties to windows98/me, and it didnt freeze.

Thanks for your help. :D :D :D :D :D :beerchug: :sorcerer:
