It worked w/ Win2k with some tweaking of the virtual memory settings.
A crapshoot, basically.

Yes, I think you'll need to set a static virtual memory size say 256-512 mb, otherwise the game just eats it all up on startup.
Right click my computer, properties, advanced tab, performance settings, advanced tab, virtual memory change, and set it to a custom size. |

That was my next question.
 Also wonder if my Logitech wheel would work w/ that. Probably not!!! Oh well. Haven't played a video game in 3 months. Doesn't really bother me.

There is also a file in the game directory that you need to delete/rename.
I had to do this to make it work on Win2K. Details here: Help Need for Speed Porsche Unleashed Tom |
