FAQs

What are the minimum system requirements?

Specific minimum requirements are not detailed, but it generally requires a PC with a Pentium processor, 32MB RAM, and a CD-ROM drive, typical for late 1990s/early 2000s games.

Can I play this game on a Mac?

Super Taxi Driver was developed for the PC platform and is not natively compatible with macOS.

Do I need an internet connection to play?

No, this is a single-player offline game. An internet connection is not required for installation or gameplay.

How do I save my progress?

Progress is typically saved automatically at the end of a day or mission, depending on the game's internal logic. Check the in-game menus for save options.

Is there a way to update the game?

As an older title, official updates are unlikely. Any available patches would have been released around the game's launch.

What if my computer doesn't have a CD-ROM drive?

You will need an external USB CD-ROM drive or use disc imaging software to create an ISO file of the game disc and mount it using virtual drive software.

Troubleshooting

Game does not install from CD-ROM

Ensure the CD-ROM drive is functioning correctly. Try cleaning the disc. If using an older OS, ensure necessary drivers are installed. Consider using disc imaging software to create an ISO file and mount it.

Game crashes on startup or during gameplay

Run the game in compatibility mode for an older Windows version. Ensure your graphics drivers are up-to-date. Close unnecessary background applications that may consume system resources.

Graphics display issues (e.g., incorrect colors, missing textures)

Adjust the game's display settings if available. Check graphics card driver compatibility. Ensure the game is running with appropriate compatibility settings.

CD-ROM drive not detected

Verify the drive is properly connected and recognized by Windows. Update or reinstall the CD-ROM drive drivers through Device Manager.
