    Had time to update finally, nice build. Thx.

    I just have a tiny problem here, every 10 mins I get sorta kicked out to the desktop but the sim runns still.
    I guess it's on my side but no idea what causes it.

    Same thing has happened to me. First trouble since build 118. Tried to do a clean install but cant get rid of my core file. Any suggestions.

    Something on your side wants to take focus in Windows. Turn off every application and process you don't need. Maybe antivirus... or a virus/trojan ;-)

    START MENU -> ALL PROGRAMS -> ACESSORIES -> SYSTEM TOOLS -> TASK SCHEDULER

    Check everything....
    Many of timed CTD´s can be avoided from here.
    Hope it helps.

    You have too many things running in the background and one of them wants your attention once in a while. Could be a messenger, a toolbar or some other nonsense. Lose that stuff!

    I did try to reinstall in order to improve my performance, and it did absolutely nothing. My previous install dated from 198, that I updated to 218, then 228, then 240...

    Re-installed fresh 240, and the performance was the same.

    If someone experienced better performance, might be because of a setting that was previously enabled, and now disabled.

    So save yourself the trouble of re-installing, and setting up everything again!

    this has happened to me twice since build 240 (never before, and no new programs installed), game minimizes to desktop, no popups shown, and i have no programs open....
    I can go back to game and continue playing, but it sometimes minimizes again.

    Try Gamebooster should close down anything that is not needed or essential to operation on your system

    You might try looking at your power options and be sure that your display is not shutting down early on you.

    This build is the worst build i have tried. What the hell is going on at ISI? Hardly any progress.

    Auto update from 228 to 240 worked fine here with no problems.

    Does anyone know where I can find archive of past builds? PC crashed so don't have and also used auto updater on some. I am going to start saving all of them but if someone know where I can find 198 for example that worked much better for me so I would like to that until ISI pulls their head out.

    I think I'll make 2nd install of rF2, with build 218. If I get increased performance and are able to use multiview, then I know it's build 228/240 that's somehow broken for my system. Otherwise I'll need to continue checking my hardware.
