Thought that I should share with you folks to see if you can help me to solve the weird problem with the program of Microsoft Train Simulator in my computer. Anyway earlier in the evening at home I decided to go on my computer to simulate the game of Train Simulator before go to work on my night shift before my weekend later this morning. When I clicked "Drive" after pick the route and activity in Route & Activity Selection then all of sudden my computer froze. Then I had to restart the computer and see if I have the same problem after clicked "Save" to pick the route and activity that already been saved from before. I was surprised to see the program of Microsoft Train Simulator uploaded with no problems even not froze too. I did change to lower the sliders and uncheck some of the boxes that are not needed in Options Menu as well for the program of Train Simulator but it doesn't help to upload the program of Train Simulator and it froze again. I was trying to figure out why is one part of the program with "Save" is working and the other part of program is not working with "Drive"?? Is there any reason for this cause and tell me how to get that fixed to free the program from freezing. Your help would be appreciated.

Thank you

Which route were you trying to run on MSTS John? Was it one of the routes that come with the sim, or have you downloaded or installed an add-on route.?

If it is happening with the default routes which come with MSTS then i suspect a reinstall is the answer. If however, you have an add-on which is causing the problem, tell us which one it is and we may be able to help further.

All depends on what you did to MSTS since running this route's activity o.k. and then saving it !

Are other routes activities running o.k. ?
