LOL! - &..... No it's not fleas...Roman

( Experience )    FS95 - 4th Year racing, no choppers.

Hey Roman, you aren't seriously running FS95 are you?

Eamonn,, Just imagine the frame rates! Doubt it that Win7 -or- XP will even allow it to get installed! ---- No. I have new X disks crying to get installed..Will wait until after the race this year. As I've been reading since it's release, it is a whole new box of worms, and can be troublesome. No need to learn new things right when it's necessary.Roman
