Great work Don! Glad to have contributed. ;-)
Cheers,
Jimmy.
| Jimmy,
| Thank you for the help. I think I cleaned up the system better and loaded
| the game in the correct area, although after following your instructions I
| was still receiving the same error.
|
| So what I did was search the CD's for the gps.DLL file. I think I found it
| on disk 2. Then I copied and pasted it into the correct file. After that I
| got a gps_export.DLL error. I copied and pasted it into the correct file from
| disk 2. The game is now running fine.
|
| Again, thank you for your help and suggestions.
