that's why W7 is still the most used OS...

@Francesco
From replay I saw that often you don't leave the throttle when change gears, or you leave pedal too late, like you don't syncronise very well with pedal-shift, maybe is this reason for your engine problem

sorry for english.. now in italian   Grin

Ho visto che spesso quando cambi marcia non molli il gas, e se lo fai è solo quando la "sfollata" è già avvenuta oramai e tutti quei picchi a limitatore forse sono la causa dei tuoi problemi di motore, dovresti provare a cercare di sincronizzarti meglio in quella manovra, prova ad alzare un po prima il gas del regime di cambiata e fallo pure tante volte, poi se è troppo prudente fai delle prove ritardando un poco finchè vedrai che arrivi al punto esatto
é un vero peccato che continui a non finire le gare per gli stessi problemi  Smiley

Clive - I too have had the hprror show of being denied entry into a new series every time we skip from 67s to 66s etc. Once I had my AV set up OK, I have had no issues. Indeed, as I seem to keep saying in race threads, if anything my GPL experience is far easier than it used to be...

As for this race, I just love Zandvoort. Yes it requires total concentrarion, not something I am known for, but tonight it worked. I got away well, but had a bump with someone on Lap 2 (sorry if that was anything to do with me, have not looked at it), and I rejoined behind a 5 way battle including Billy, Andreas, Dean and Gareth I think. It was amazing to see how close we all were lap after lap, and how frustrating it was for me to fail to get past Billy again and again, as he sped away from me in his fancy 3L car at the start of the straight. I nearly lost it a couple of times trying ever riskier things to stay in his draft, but I got him eventually, perhaps one of my most satisfying overtakes ever :-).

By the time I got past him and the others, my ankle was starting to hurt, and any notions of fighting Dean for position were quickly suppressed as he took a second a lap from me, and I couldn't respond.

Well done to everyone for such a great race.

Update...................

I thought that i might try 30mins of practice for the 55 race tonight and choose which car to use.
Fired up the new rig and started GEM.
Selected my 55 driver profile, the 55 carset and Zandvoort.
Started GPL ( offline)
Car in pits FPS 36???
Back out to GEM...60fpsnewmod box is clearly ticked???
Rejoin screen resolution is 600x800?Huh!!!!
Back out to GEM...check Graphics and Rasterizer settings.. all OK at 1920x1080???
into GPL again and we have correct screen resolution and 60FPS??? even though no settings were changed???

OK whatever  Huh Did a few laps and played with setup etc

Then Screen Freeze with horrible buzzing sound!!! Had to crash PC and restart.

Clicked on the desktop icon for GEM and I get a small windows message "fatal error" Huh and GEM will not activate. I cannot get GEM to start so It looks like another fresh install  Undecided

Tried the IGOR icon and that fires up OK.

Went into the Events log to see if there were any clues, and at the time that it all went wrong it appears that the "PeopleApp" was initialising?Huh along with some other admin stuff.

I am wondering if this is similar to the problem that Robert Fleurke had, where he overcame it by mapping one of his pedals to a keystroke so that windows will recognise GPL as a running programme and not "put it to sleep"Huh

UPDATE 2....

I took the precaution of saving a copy of my GPLsecrets folder after I got things working again on Sunday evening.
So, I tried to delete the now non-functioning GEM software from my HDD, but I got the message that it was "still being used by another programme"?? Very odd, as nothing was showing on the taskbar after a PC reboot?
Fired up Task Manager
There were about 4 instances of GEM listed and apparently running. I assume from my attempts at clicking on the desktop shortcut, but there was no evidence of GEM actually having launched properly.

So, used the "end task" command and removed all of the references to GEM from Task Manager.

Deleted the GPLsecrets folder complete. Deleted the desktop shortcuts then copied and renamed the saved ( working) GPL secrets folder into place.
Created a shortcut and placed on desktop.
Click, and we are operational again Wink

So, whatever happens when GPL freezes also corrupts GEM and its ability to start again  Huh. I have now placed a reserve ( renamed) copy of GPLsecrets alongside the current install and kept another copy on a memory stick. At least this way I do not have to do a complete virgin install if it happens again.

I had a lot of problems getting GEM to work properly on XP!

In the end, when I finally sorted it I created separate GPL55.exe files for 36fps and 60fps.  When all else fails I go with those.

In fact, I always use the 36fps.exe when needed instead of messing with GEM.  That is just left on 60fps.

My conspiracy theory is Bill Gates used to play GPL back in the early days but he just could not get the hang of driving cars with no computer assistance. Since then the evil lord of Microsoft has tasked his minions to make GPL increasingly difficult to operate.
On a more serious note my GEM programme has become rather temperamental of late. My technique is that if I change anything I close the programme so it does a rebuild. If you open multiple versions it won't do anything unless I restart the PC. I then take to the track & randomly crash into the crowd if I spot a nerdy computer geek.

A good race by my standards...

14 laps spent trying to find a gap get past you attests. :thumbsup:
