I'de be able to leave this box running 24 hours as a server for rennlisters but for some reason whenever I serve from it, the game crashes out upon loading and players are thrown back into the lobby.

Do I smell a "league" brewing?

IF i could get the dam game to run I have a full T and could run the server!

Marc, I forget if you mentioned before .. is the game just crashing out or are you getting some sort of error message?

Hmm I think the proper way to do it would be to establish a weekly or bi-weekly TIME where we always play each other, and whoever hosts with lowest ping is best.

Personally I love playing just for fun and not worrying about serious competition.. I held a lot of world records on the stats server until people started cheating and that killed it for me.

Now I have to go mod my 88 Turbo S - the only thing it has going for it right now is a tuned suspension.

That's true.

I also remember playing with cheaters before on the main server, and it sucked. That's sort of why I enjoy playing with renn people - I know they won't cheat. If they do, I'll email John D and have their membership cancelled. Just kidding =)

As far as a weekly / bi weekly time .. that's fine. My vote would be for something like 8 or 9PM EST on Sunday, but its up to you guys.

It fires up, gets past the 2 intros and than throws me back to the desktop...

Tried all the ides I could find,
Changing swap file size
Video setting
drooping AGP down to 2x from 8x
Deleting a dll.. etc..etc...
