Hey all,
I just installed Midnight Club 2 for PC, but i find it runs a little slow...my system setup has more than the min. requirements, but still, there is a teensy lag. I'm running XP Pro with 512 MB RAM, a 64MB Nvidia GeForce 2 MX/MX 400 graphics card, and a 40GB Western Digital hard drive. Screen resolution is 1280 * 1024 or 1024 * 768...I think it's the former. Any ideas? Many thanks.

Maxwell

I heard from a friend that Midnight Club II requires a video card with certain capabilities which I forgot (something "lighting")

That may be why your game is choppy.

Not sure

sounds like the video card is the problem. maybe update drivers or make sure u have updated ones already. either that or it might be time for a new video card, geforce 2 is pretty old now

I'm pretty sure its your vid card. I have a Radeon 9600 pro and it runs very smoothly on 1280x1024.
