Charles,

Possibly the problem lies with your video card settings. If I apply NVIDEA settings used for MSTS, OR stalls on startup with the same error message. Reset to default settings and OR runs OK. Optimum settings must be somewhere in-between. I know there are probably as many machine setups as there are PC's but it's a start.

Reverted to nVedia default. Same problem.

Guys,

Win 7 64 pro using V128

Just to prove the activity is ok.
I started it with MSTS, ok,
I started it with OR and it starts ok.
