Two questions:

Firstly, how does it crash? Does it crash to the desktop, or does it simply stop in the middle of loading?

Secondly, how many routes, stock items and consists do you have installed? If there's quite a few, you may need to start using TrainStore to manage your installation..

Well, you download it from the MSTS Quick Pick menu on the fromt page, install it and make sure you read at least the basics of the readme (which is quite long but very informative. TrainStore's a powerful tool that, used properly, will make your MSTS installtion much more stable and much quicker to load, as it manages your memory by only loading the specific items needed by an activity.

You need to make sure that Trainstore is running as an administrator, as per the advice in the Vista/W7 forum.

.... and you will probably need to set your Train Store folder permissions the same as for your main Train Simulator folder as above :) Both need Everyone Full Control permissions
