Unable to exit MSTS normally
At the completion of running a game in MSTS after closing I end up with a
completely blank screen and the only way I can exit this screen is to press Crtl+Alt+Delete which then returns me to the opening screen displaying "log off" "change password" etc. Anyone else having the same problem. I have Vista Home Premium. Thanking you |

G'Day Katy,
Thank you for your suggestion, I did as you suggested but it still hasn't solved the problem. I run a NVIDIA 8500GT video card. -- Thanking you "Katy Pluta" wrote: On Sat, 17 May 2008 20:00:00 -0700, Graeme wrote: At the completion of running a game in MSTS after closing I end up with a completely blank screen and the only way I can exit this screen is to press Crtl+Alt+Delete which then returns me to the opening screen displaying "log off" "change password" etc. Anyone else having the same problem.

I am glad, but sad to see that someone else has this same problem. I
noticed that I always get a message that their is a problem with Patch 1.4, and even though I have installed the newest patch for the game, still the same thing. "Graeme" wrote in message ...

Clinton,
I have found out the if you right click on the MSTS icon and run the program as Administrator it works fine. I have opened the program this way for the last few days and have no problems in closing it down. -- Thanking you "Clinton" wrote: I am glad, but sad to see that someone else has this same problem.

When I attempted to run the game yesterday, it wouldn't load, then I
rebooted and it loaded just fine. When I went to exit, it did it just fine. I have a feeling that a number of people complained, or they got enough error reports to change something in the coding to Vista to fix the problem. "Graeme" wrote in message ...
