Hello Rachel, my old friend. 
I'm borrowing your car again.

I got tired of NFS Payback and the whole gambling card nonsense, so I figured I'd revisit NFSU2 to see if it really was as good as I remember. 

 

Had to patch the .exe to get 2560x1440 support, but it works.  Maxed-out settings, 30% GPU usage and 120FPS. 
Somehow my 5930K is maxing out, but I assume that's because this game was from the XP era, so it's not really running properly in Win7.

    It was over 90% on ALL cores and threads.  Just figured out why though.  Apparently rundll32.exe starts using 60+% as soon as I launch the game.  I tried killing that process, but then the game crashes shortly afterwards.

     

    Yeah, this game really doesn't want to work properly on Win7.  It predates the OS by 5 years.  Guess I'm going to try it on my Linux box, perhaps it works better under Wine. 

     

    Still is massive fun though
