Rally Championship PROBLEM
17.02.04 at 17:11:06  
I have a "little" problem with the game "RALLY Championship" (Magnetic Fields - 1999)!! Undecided

I can not start it coz it's "wants" 8MB of video ram!!!
I have Voodoo3 (8Mb - integrated at MotherBoard /MSI 1868/), and I have 8MB but it still can't start. !Note!: I can't install it coz this problem appears when installation begins. Tongue

Maby it is problem in Windows (98) ussage of video ram, so game recognise its memory as 7,5 Mbytes or something like that.... I dont know, but please help  Cry
I want this game to work so baaad!

Is there any chance to make "fake" ram (+few MBz) to make it work??!
Heeelp Lips Sealed

You can try getting rid of the wallpaper, that saved my butt when GTA3 wanted 16megs but i had (apperantly) only 15.3 (due to using a wallpaper, which is saved on the vram)

Yeeeah... It's quite unusual combination.
Belive me, I would like to have a 16Mb (normal) Voodoo3.  Cry
BUT, I'm very satisfyed with its performance even with just 8Mbytes Wink
Believe me it is very speedy card ... I started a bunch of games (even I couldn't believe to work) from 2001. and 2002. (such as AvP2, Max Payne, ...)

DenisF, I did that first (removing desktop) when I expirienced a problem!!  Grin

Any other "tweaks"!?!?

Well you can go really extreme by setting your desktop to 640*480*16 and using 60hz refresh.

That's about it..

lower your desktop resolution. does dxdiag also report the 7.5mb of ram? there must be some way to fool this.

edit: too slow!
