Does it give you any sort of error message, or is it straight to desktop?

First of all, did you recently install a new route, new activity, or new train that might give a S/DS message? Could you give us you system specs like video card, HD, ram, etc... Do you have anything running in the background that might hogged up your memory? A little more information could help us to determine what the problem is. Ken Plaza

Is it a desktop or a laptop? what kind of video card do you have?
Everything else looks fine to me.

I would suggest getting more memory...XP needs a fair amount just to run and MSTS loads lots of data when it runs a route also...maybe you are just on the limit...at today's prices it is not a big investment.
Clearing out 'junk' and defragging might help too...
That's my 2 pennies worth

256 Meg of ram is barebones minimum for XP. You may want to think about upgrading your ram if possible. I am not saying this is your problem but MsTS would run a lot better on your machine with 512 meg or better.

I also never did the restart so MSTS could play right so I removed the whole trainsim and started over. "Jesus Saves" (People not Railroads.)
