have any of u managed to download and run the demo for this on pc? - i have downloaded it both at home and at uni (where i am now) and everytime i try to play it, it restarts my pc, the loading screen comes up for like 2 seconds then reboot time - its not like the pc's are crap or nuthin (athlon 1.4ghz and a 2200xp both with 64mb geforce 2 graphics) so i am at a loss as to wha the problem is - anyone else had this problem?
its just a major bummer as i wanted to see what this game was like as i like the old touring cars.

yeh but some of the newer games are gfx driver dependant, the newer games are always tested on the latest card drivers availiable.

There's got to be some Codemasters forum or whatever.Try posting your problem there.

right well if ur comp automatically restarts, go to control panel > system > advanced > click settings in the startup and recovery section > uncheck automatically restart in the system failure section. XP WILL NOT restart without going to a blue screen telling you the error and a code.

did any filenames appear either such as nv4_Disp.dll
also this error appears if ur gfx card is overheating from a damaged or non working fan
