Hi there, I suppose you mean 3840x1024 ? ;) (Just asking, there are so many 'resolution freaks' running insane displays around here...) :lol:

Did you pay a visit to the game's entry in the master list ? The CamHack should work as detailed there.

with respect, your 7600GS might not be up to the task!

I agree with skeeder.
I have 7900GT and I'm using 3072x768 resolution.

Yeah, That is the problem. MoBo won't take PCI-E. So what do you think the max setting should be? Will the picture look stretched? What kind of frame rates should I expect?

Thanks

So what do you think the max setting should be?

I think you should be able to play @ 2400x600 or 3072x768 resolution depending on graphics details.

Will the picture look stretched?

You must use the RBR CamHack program to avoid this from happening.

What kind of frame rates should I expect?

It depends on view mode (cockpit view, bumber view, chase view), the stage you're driving, weather conditions, etc. With my gaming rig, I mostly get 60-75 fps @ 3072x768 (high details). I think I could increase resolution, but I'm quite happy with my current settings and image quality. I don't want to have any random slowdowns while driving flat out in the middle of the forest. :)
