TDR freezes on 5th race
I got TDR2k yesterday (US ver) and on every 5th race per area it freezes on AI O' Death Refueling. I'm not even using a CD crack like I do with most games (too lazy for CD switching)
Has anyone else had this problem? And, more importantly, does anyone know how the heck to do something about it?
specs: 750mhz P3, 128RAM still got 3.9 gb free on HDD, and my nice new GeForce 3 (VisionTek, 64mb DDR)
Obviously... it's hard to imagine I have the settings too high

Re: TDR freezes on 5th race
here's the answer from Sci...
update your drivers and make sure your cd is running correctly...
yeah, vague, but it'll probably work

Re: TDR freezes on 5th race
OK, I'll try that and see what happens.. (the CD shouldn't be the problem, and actually I'm going to go ahead and crack it (pickin my own music anyway
but drivers yeah, I did just buy the card I *guess* that could be it. (I assume that's video card drivers, right?)

Re: TDR freezes on 5th race
didn't work
updated to latest GF3 drivers and ran CD-cracked ver instead (Static-X's new albu fit very well
Incidentally, I had another version *cough* before I bought this-- and it did the same thing. (Purists: I planned on buying it anyway, I usually do (always do actually, except the games that suck...)and don't always do it in the first place)

Re: TDR freezes on 5th race
well what i did was used the Level Select cheat and played the missions because the missions aren't overwhelmed with AI if there is AI, you can still beat the game, but you'll be skipping the buying of cars and just playing the levels with # other cars, but no matter what just beat the game and you'll get access to all the cars... and you can always start a game in free driving and add players for enjoyment

Re: TDR freezes on 5th race
That happends for me, still does. The reply from SCi tech support (Yes i actualy got a reply) they said play the first area without buying any cars (Hard i know) and it should clear up. It did for the next few races where it ususaly froze up, but nothing after that.

Re: TDR freezes on 5th race
Buy no cars?! ARRRRGHHH
I don't suppose just using the Eagle every time works?
(I'm a single player cheater! I always buy all the cars I waste
Hmm. So play race #1 in each area and don't buy cars? but races 3 and 5 are free for buying?
