LAST EDITED ON Jun-07-01 AT 07:34 AM (EST)LAST EDITED ON Jun-07-01 AT 07:34 AM (EST)LAST EDITED ON Jun-07-01 AT 07:18 AM (EST)I bought my copy of MSTS from a local Wal-Mart here in NJ. None of the computer stores in my area had it.Before installing I did what I always do before loading a game or other type of software program. I booted to Safe Mode then ran a SCANDISK and a DEFRAG. It's better to defrag in safe mode since not all system 'stuff' gets loaded. After that finished, I booted to regular mode and installed MSTS. No problem with the install. Started the sim and ran the tutorial. Again no problem. No screen graphics hesitation.Went to the Amtrak and ran the EXPLORE option. Again, no problem. Ran it FULL screen on my 19" monitor. No hesitation in the graphics. The same results with BNSF with full detailed graphics.Here's the hardware I'm using MSTS on...Dell Dimension 4100 series
Windows ME
Intel P3 933Mhz
256MB SDRAM
40GB Ultra ATA HDD
48X MAX variable CD-ROM
32MB DDR ATI Radeon 4X AGP grahics card
19" P991 Dell Monitor (really a Sony Trinitron with the Dell name on it)
Turtle Beach Santa cruz sound card.I will post updates as I see fit.Bob

Everything whizzes by real smooth with no lockups. Now if I could just get the hang of controlling trains. Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
