I've tried every crack there is! See what happens :

- I've fully installed the game

- I've replaced CMR2.exe with the crack

I've started the game. Everything looked normal. I watched the intro, browsed the in game menus but, when I tried to start a race (any race in any country with any car) look what happened: whenever I reach a particular point on the road (a few seconds after I start the race), the game freezes and I need to reboot the PC!!! Please, anyone, help me! I'm desperate! Is this an internal piracy check or is my PC the problem?
PII 450, 128Mb, Voodoo 3 3000 AGP, C-Media on-board sound chipset

Oh man,

It looks like Voodoo 3 shit! I hope that's not it though... Have you installed DirectX 8 yet? Do you think this might cause the problem? Which Voodoo 3 drivers have you installed? I have the latest ones which support DX8. Should we try reinstalling an earlier version of Voodoo drivers?

Yes, I'm from Greece, too :-)

Please, notify me if you solve the problem...I will too. Here is my e-mail address : dimigr73**********com

Should this problem occur in an original CMR2 cd too? If not, I'm going to buy it tomorrow, first thing in the morning... :)
