Issues unresolved[edit]
'Cannot locate the CD-ROM' error after patching the game[edit]
After patching the game to the latest official version (v1.13), the game cannot detect the disc, even if it's in the drive. The only 'solution' is to use a No-CD patch.
Due to the legality of the patch, PCGamingWiki cannot directly link to any downloads of it.

It's a headache to get this game to work. I got to install it with the gpl installer and it changes resolution and blocks the computer in Win 7. In another partition I have with Win XP, it opens but the screen flashes in no good way for the monitor. I don't understand how it's so complicate to get this game to run when most abandonware run in Windows 7. This one has several patches and mods for different computer specifications, and your computer suffers from having to reset it with each test you do.

Tried to mount the ISO but Wincdemu says the file is corrupted
Chris2019-09-08-1 point
i never use mods
IAIN MCMURTRIE2019-07-140 point
had this when it first came out it was best f1 sim out then and is stiil great now
Billtheguy2019-07-0821 points
For those who are having 'This is not a valid CD' problem:
1. Download the iso file.
2. Mount the iso file (with WinCDEmu).
3. Download GPLPS Installer from the link in the description.
4. Run GPLPS Installer and select the mounted iso as source.
5. Install.

Mounted the English iso with WinCDEmu and started the installer. 'This is not a valid CD.'

love this game

One of the best simracing games, made by Papyrus with a great multiplayer engine up to 20 players in the race. There's only one thing you need - the wheel. Playing with the keyboard is possible you only get frustrated and you'll end on the first corner ;)

@The Man:
Yes, as the flags suggest, they're FR and DE versions, there is no EN version here.
the man2019-01-061 point
Are the copies below in english? They look to be in german and french
thehelpfulguy2018-10-292 points
clark kent ni.
you silly. what you need to do is mount the game onto a virtual disk (use magiciso) and then your computer can play it as though there was a disk inserted
sanic2018-03-270 point
YHe it works just download power iso run the file or download the installer here http://gpltd.bcsims.com/?ir=Mods
McFunster2018-03-032 points
Yes, there is a workaround. Download a free copy of FANTOM CD. Install it, reboot. Click OPEN on the Fantom CD program and point it to the ISO of GPL. Mount the image and reinstall the program from there.

One of the funniest racing games I've ever played. Infinite mods of real and fictional tracks, or complete seasons of F1 with its teams, drivers and all this stuff. Even without that the base game is awesome
Jason2017-11-07-1 point
There are definitely nocd cracks out there for this game. Quick search should yield a result.
speed bones2017-11-011 point
its a bust
niceguy9823982017-07-241 point
Same problem for me.
Clarke_Kent_NI2016-12-193 points
I tried to install the game but it asks for the disk, is there a way around this?
