Hi
I have been running RFactor on a laptop.
To ready for RFcator2 I bought a gaming PC. (6 Core AMD 3.4ghz, ATI 7850 graphics. 8 gig ram, 1TB Hard drive). Windows 7.
First attempt I copied all my old files across into a fresh install. Funny stuff happened: no matter what car or series or track I selected I always arrived at Monaco in the F1 1991 Mod (the last race I did).
So I uninstalled the game using control panel and deleted everything from the PC and all folders. Then went to Recycle Bin and deleted all files.
I ran Rfactor exe again. Selected a car and went to a practice session. There was one of everything in the pit garages (all series) and I was in a random car.
So I uninstalled the game using control panel and deleted everything from the PC including the newly downloaded Rfactor in downloads file this time and all folders. Then went to Recycle Bin and deleted all files.
Did a fresh download, strangely it did not ask for my unlock code.
When I opened it up it had all my lap records at all tracks still from the old game and $5m bank balance. So it looks like it found that file somewhere.
When I try to drive anywhere it crashes to desktop.
Please help it will be depressing to go back to my old laptop after this investment!
Thanks
EDIT: I have spent more time in the FAQ section and will try some things suggested there. Maybe Windows 7 has been up to its file hiding tricks!
