Does MSTS...

[ungreat]

..work with Vista?


Asking cos I have a new Vista powered computer!

 

[Donny Dave]

Yes.

Very long and round about answer, but it eventually gets to the point.

It does, but about twice as slow as it did with XP.
Route editor is unusable.

If it is so slow on Vista will there be a future patch to rectify this?
I hope there can be something done because i will be moving to a new computer with Vista and dread problems with MSTS never mind the well documented ones with BVE.
At least i will be able to try EARS especially at the price Morrisons are selling it at.

if you do have it
right click, properties, tick run as administrator that way when you close it you dont have to close it through control manager

It doesn't run any slower with Vista than XP IMO.

AFAIK, there's no support as such for MSTS any more, as you got MSTS 2 coming out sometime in 2009....

Best idea mate, stick with XP. That way you get your full speed PC actually working fast. Vista is full of problems so I'm told.

Location: Canada... Local line: West Anglia Great Northern line (Hertford East branch)... right, ok... :???: Btw, WAGN ended on April 2006, it's First Capital Connect now, just to let you know lol

I have family that live in Ware, Hertfordshire, if you'd bothered to look in my Biography in my profile. The West Anglia Great Northern line (London Liverpool Street-Cambridge line)

They're still gone. WAGN left ages ago. It's now NXEC (National Express East Coast)

No its not,

The GN part of WAGN is now First Capital Connect.

And the WA part of WAGN is now National Express East Anglia.
