My computer is more than fast enough to run it (2.4 gigahertz, 520 meg ram) but it has frozen twice, it there a patch or sumthing that fixes this?
I really need it to work at 100%

My Computer is the same speed as yours and It has a Problam with The program and when ever I Go to an extrenal veiw if i stay there long enough it will automaticly reboot my computer and i have to Start Over.

that happens to me if i am switching the yard in whitefish.
it just freezes…
And today i had this horible clicking sound on the external view for end of trains…wierd…
YOU HAVE PLENTY OF CPU SPEED AND MEMORY BUT HOW GOOD IS YOUR GRAPHICS/VIDEO CARD. IT WILL WORK OK ON GEFORCE 2 ULTRA OR BETTER
Actually since I switched to XP MSTS hasn’t locked up on me. However having said that it’s a good idea to make sure you have the latest drivers installed for you sound and video cards.

Windows typically loads so many programs at boot up that the user only really has about 300mb out of 520mb that is useable. That said, graphics programs are real
hogs. You can remove some programs from boot. While still available it’s just not
as fast to access them. On the plus side your computer will boot faster. Also make
sure DMA is turned on.

whats DMA?
I went with the Gforce4 with 64meg DRAM and that solved my freezing and reboot problem in XP. XP is the most unforgiving OS that has hit the market. My old 98SE worked MSTS better than XP does
yeah…me to
oh well
thats micrososft…2 of their programs never work togeter perfectly
I have had Train Sim for about a year now. XP and a 64MEG video card were great for it, and my CPU and memory are more than enough to run it I have downloaded some of the MSTS patch updates, but still it sometimes sticks. A recent problem has come up when I’m switching in the yard, and I can’t couple to the car in front of me. The car countdown goes to 0 and then -0, -1. It’s like hooking up to a ghost car, lol.
the front coupler for any locomotive does not work…if you hook up…from the front you will not see all your cars or even your loco in the f9 screen…also i ran a dash in reverse with 7 cars hooked to front end and couyld not exceed 25 mph…its cause the front coupler
The best source for improvements to MSTS are at www.train-sim.com. You answers can be found there along with upgrades for just about everything.
Front coupler - have you dled the 1.2 patch from MS?
yea man…it didnt work.did i install it wrong maybe
Try to reinstall it, for some reason only known to MS, at times the update skips files. Now this is not the end all to the coupler problem, it makes it easier, but not bulletproof.
