Problem with Pro Pilot in 3DFX

Hi,
I installed my old copy of Pro Pilot 99 on my Toshiba M200 laptop (Win7), and then installed nGlide 3DFX wrapper.
The game runs fine until I switch from direct draw to 3DFX. I then get a message saying that Pro Pilot 99 has stopped responding and the game closes.

Has anyone had a similar issue and discovered a workaround or a more suitable wrapper?

Thanks,
Rod

While I do have a couple of the Pro Pilot games, I have never explored how well they run on modern PCs. Getting a game to use wrapper seems to be a bit hit or miss. The best that I could recommend is to simply try various ones until you find one that works. The Glide Wrapper page is a bit dated, but could be a starting point. If you follow the links to the home pages you can check for more recent versions.

If you find one that works for you, please let us know.
