GTS250 and Motocross Madness 2
This is a game that I enjoyed running for many years, with many add-in tracks, etc. It worked GREAT on my Dell 610 machine but now on the Dell 670 with nHancer installed, it works terrible with badly dithered skies and freeze-ups, etc. What do I need to set in the GTS250 driver to make this game work? It's code from around 2001 when Win2k was around. -Ed |

It's code from around 2001 when Win2k was around. My PC is running Win 7 64-bit and has a GTX 295. I installed the trial version of MM2 and the appearance was exactly as you describe. The game looks crap because for some reason MM2 employees software rendering on PCs with greater than 2GB of RAM. The fix is to first uninstall the game along with saved games using MM2's own installer package. Run msconfig, click the Boot tab, click Advanced Options, tick Maximum Memory, type in 2048. Reboot with that setting and then reinstall the game. You'll notice that this time when you go to play the game you'll be asked to select between Software Rendering and your GTS 250. Works good, now.

It is precisely because Windows Live Mail 2010/2011 fails to quote newsgroup articles being replied to that I am now back to using the 2009 edition. The link to Windows Live Essentials 2009 (offline installer) in case you're interested. http://g.live.com/1rewlive3/en/wlsetup-all.exe BTW, all the mail and newsgroups databases manage to survive the swap.

brought the following to our attention: wrote in message This is a game that I enjoyed running for many years, with many add-in tracks, etc. It worked GREAT on my Dell 610 machine but now on the Dell 670 with nHancer installed, it works terrible with badly dithered skies and freeze-ups, etc. What do I need to set in the GTS250 driver to make this game work?

Tony Suppose I could do that and have a boot menu entry for it? When MM2 starts up now, a menu appears to select `Software Rasterization´ or `GeForce GTS250.´ Software raster just doesn't work at all, even for ground textures and GTS250 setting runs ok but has poka-dot skies. So should I create a boot menu entry to play MM2 with the fixes that you describe? -Ed |
