Do you use kaspersky anti virus? People had problems with the demo and needed to uninstall kaspersky to play it.

You probably got a non-SSE2 processor. AMD Athlon XP, barton, sempron.

So it's certainly not crack related!

Well, if you had the same problem with the demo, i don't see how this could be related to the crack...or am i missing something?

When you're game doesnt do anything try this:

Add the parameter -novirtual to the shortcut so it looks like this:

"C:\Program Files\Codemasters\GRID\GRID.exe" -novirtual

I'm having almost the same issue.. I started up the game fine, created a profile.. then I changed the video settings to highest.. After it restarted to apply the changes all I see is the grid logo with a black scree, the logo disappeares after 3 seconds, then nothing happens.. just the black screen.. running the game in win 98/me fixed it but now I can't change the video settings or anything!!! I did not have this issue with the demo running @ highest settings though..

vista X86 ultimate, e6750, 2gb, 8800GTS 320mb running 175.16 driver.

just enter dxdiag at start -> run and go to sound.
