Running XP SP2 with AMD Athalon 64 Processor 3200+ 1.00 GHz 950M Ram.

When the client starts up the boats are there breifly, then they chance to colored dots only. There are no wind arrows, iso or pressure lines or traces. The download was 7.12MB V0.00
Beta6 Changing items in the "SHOW" dropdown box makes no difference.

What am I doing wrong? Something stupid?

Thanks
I've heard this before. If you go to Show->Overlays, and set it to none, can you see something then?

Are you running 64-bit windows or 32 bit?
Selecting no overlays changes nothing.

I am not sure if running 32 or 64 bit, it is on my home PC and I am not there now. How do I check that?

I am having the same problem on a Toshiba laptop at home also, but not on the laptop I am using now (ACER)
Can you think of some kind of software you're running on the two troubled PCs, that you are to using on the computer that is working?
No,

Two different machines, one with virus protection one without. Different Processors and different programs. The only thing in common would be the Internet connection DSL One is hardwired, other on netwok router.
Does the clock in the top left corner keep ticking?
I believe so, But I will check later and post a new reply
Clock is ticking
The clock was still ticking, I checked and I am running 32 bit, changed to 16 bit but it made no difference.

I deleted the program,restored my computer to another date and ri-installed the program, still the same problem.
These are the errors I recieve when I shutdown the client, Does this shed any light on my problem?

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Cocos to Sagar Island


Kapil Muni, incarnation of Lord Vishnu, founder of the Samkhya school of philosophy, disturbed from his meditation, in his wrath reduced the 60,000 sons of Sagar to ashes, as they dug the earth to retrieve the sacrificial horse that Lord Indra, the king of the Gods, stole off Sagar, thus creating the Sagara (ocean). Aeons later, Bhagiratha, a descendant of Sagara, asked Ganga to cleanse the ashes of the 60,000 princes, and her resultant torrential fall from heaven created the great river and where it met the ocean, the princes’ souls were washed and raised to heaven and Gangasagar (Sagar Island) was formed. So, let us join the pilgrimages to Kapi Muni’s Temple (see above) and race 2400nm from Cocos Island deep in the Sagara thence, in rather rapid Rapido 60s.
