Not sure if anyone had seen this so I thought I would post it. This is translated from the original page at: http://mackoy.cool.ne.jp/bve5/ About the development of BVE Trainsim 5 Before of the BVE Trainsim 4, because up-to-date Windows (Windows Vista) it does not operate at on, makes...

Hi everyone, Sorry I have not been around for some time - unfortunately work has been manic and I haven't had any time to even run BVE since I posted this! With regards to the remaining crashes relating to System.Windows.Forms or similar - those are indicating a problem with the .NET...

I have performed a clean install of Vista x86 on a machine, and only installed the files listed in my steps and BVE works fine. If you are having problems, the only thing I can suggest is that you consider installing Vista from scratch - if you are unable to do this, then unfortunately you may...

Well, the research I have done on this suggests that it is not confined to BVE and is a general video hardware/software related problem. If this was my machine, I would try dropping the screen resolution down to 800x600 initially, if that still didn't work then try installing the latest video...

I can't spot an obvious reason for this happening, if it is going in then it should work - does it do it in full screen mode too?

Disabling UAC or running as an administrator is a solution to some of the DirectX problems, you might need to do it, and maybe not - it really depends on the installation. The problem with the BVE error is that it could be more than one thing which causes the crash depending on the...

If you are worried about safety then by all means leave UAC on. It is the first thing I disable when I build a Vista machine, but only because of my own technical experience, if you do not know the OS inside out then there is a potential risk but probably quite small. If you want to use...

Okay, I thought it might say something like that - I will work out the best way of doing this and send you over some instructions.

That's a file not found error - probably Windows Common Controls, but a bit hard to say as so many things can interact with System.Windows.Forms. First thing I would do is reinstall .NET Framework 2 from the MS site - if that doesn't work I will talk you through a way to find out what is...

Can you post or PM me the contents of the error from your event log? If you go into event viewer, under windows logs, application log look for the most recent Windows Error Reporting (ID 1001) entry which relates to BVE, it will look something like this : Fault bucket 10989844, type 5...

Has anyone given this a try yet? If it is not working, then let me know and I will do a clean install of Vista and see if I missed out any steps. I have attached a picture from within Vista so you can see it running. I can assure everyone though, registering these files will not break your...

After 5 months of trial and error, process exploring, and general headaches I am pleased to say I have managed to get BVE working on Vista from a clean install (upgrade installations should work already if you had BVE before.) Please note if after following these instructions you have a...
