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?

TuziTekwini TIMED Race 2026

Sailonline is delighted to have been invited again to partner with the King Shaka Yacht Club (KSYC) of South Africa to bring a virtual version of the Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Raceto our online community.
The Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Race is a near 90 nautical mile race down the east coast of South Africa from the port of Richards Bay to the port of Durban. Achievable in a single day and seen by some as an easy mile-builder, the course is more tactical than some think and should not be underestimated. This iconic race promises to be an unforgettable experience for yachting enthusiasts.
Our online version of the race will be a TIMEDrace so you may RE-REGISTER HEREto try again after finishing a run. You will have two weeks to test your skill and decision making after the race opens.
