Hi Guys
i just bought Rail Simulator, and after checking my system specifications it i'm sure they meet the minimum
but every time i try to run Rail Simulator, it says "this program has stopped working", if i click options and try to click ok it comes up with the error
"unsupported resolution or multi sampling options"
i'm rather miffed, but can someone jsut go over my system specs and see if i can do anything ?

Re: Usupported Resolution ?
When you load RS, you will get an initial screen. Unfortunately, RS doesn't have the foresight to detect and set your resolution, so hit "Options".
Whilst yours will not yet look quite like this, this pic is basically the same.

Forgetting the language portion, ensure the other bits in items 2 & 3 are set for your machine.

Re: Usupported Resolution ?
Hi
Don't forget to press the test button before you play the game. The game will then be set up and away you go to the start window.
Regards
Mike
