Whenever I click on "Save Game", RCT will immediately close without any kind of error message...nothing...it just closes and I'm instantly returned to my desktop. This happens to both RCT w/ eps and patch and RCT2 w/ patch. I'm not sure if it does the same for "Load Game", but I suspect that it does. Both games run fine; This is the only problem I've run into so far. Here are my general specs:

CPU: Intel Pentium 4 3.0GHz
RAM: 1.0 GB
Video Card: ATi Radeon X1950 Pro
Sound Card: Creative SB XF-i
OS: Windows XP Home w/ SP2

I will give out DXDIAG information if you need it.

Thanks in advance.

you talk about a patch for rct2, which one do you mean ?
the one for XP ?

[beginner2]

*sigh* This happened to me for rct only. I couldn't play because it wasn't compatible. It's not the OS, sound card, cpu, or video card. Maybe directx. Try installing the xp patches for both rct's.

RCT patches. All that I can help with.

I want to know how it got fixed... because I have the exact same problem but on vista...

[Sambo]

Vista is a totally different animal than XP. Vista will NOT run a lot of older software.

Open question> Has anyone here been able to run RCT1 or RCT2 in Vista? If so please post details.

[Levis]

for vista you just have to disable visual themes for this program (right click on the pictogram -> properties -> compatability -> disable visual themes)

[korokuken]

Still the same thing even after disabled visual theme... though it does look better now without the screwd up colours

[Levis]

your running it in xp sp2 mode i assume ?
