If it can run Vista you should be fine for rFactor

Gary, when you have a minute, could you post the video of the last race on the results web page?

Thanks

Done.. Sorry, forgot all about it.

Do a refresh on the site when you get there, you should notice that the final race at Mid Ohio has been scheduled!

Mid-Ohio Points Race - Wednesday April 30, 2008. Qualifying for 15 minutes at 8:00PM EST, Race begins at 8:15, Standing Start !!

You may also notice that we are running Summit Point after Watkins Glen, for my own selfish reasons (racing there 6/21-22)..

The microsoft wheel should work. Vista should find it and a driver for it. If it doesn't find a driver you should be able to download one online to patch it up.

Just take anyone here http://www.rfactor.net/index.php?page=downloads

That's the latest version, after download, try turning off your antivirus before launching the setup

i did go to that page but there are 12 different full versions,the download is not a zip file, its an exe file just to make sure i am downloading the correct one. i am going to try and disarm the virus software before running the install and see if that helps.
