Got myself a new copy of the Hornby Virtual Railway (Version 2) only to find that it gives Illegal Operations on both my WinXP and Win98 machines. Installed patch and fixed Win98 machine, but I would like it to work on the XP computer.
Any ideas as to what has gone wrong?

Which version of xp? i have it running ok on a brand new machine with xp home. It works fine on my sons win2k as well. haven't tried it on xp pro......
What's your spec memory, graphic card etc.. I'd start looking at graphics to start
My impression is that it's much slower than v1, and why the lack of things like turntables......

Patch no. 4? It needed that in order to work on my XP box.

You're using a Micro$oft operating system.

HVR2 worked fine straight out of the box on my XP machine. No patches at all.
Although that doesn't help with the matter much, it is XP compatible straight from the box. Have you tried running it in an "administrator" account, rather than a non-adminstrator account? (Microsoft's train simulator has the same issue).
