Dear Luca,

Vista yet. You can ask him for free CD just write you probelm on official
Lego site.

Best Regards,

I had this error message on a Vista system.  RIS 2.0 worked fine the
first time
I ran it, but gave this error every subsequent time (even if I
uninstalled/reinstalled it).  Memory definitely wasn't an issue since the
system
had 4GB RAM plus swap space.  The same thing happened on a second system
(also
Vista Ultimate).

I was able to get it working by deleting the file "Ris 2.0.mov.#res" from
the
local Temp directory.
On Vista this was C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp\Ris 2.0.mov.#res.
On XP I'd guess it would be something like C:\Documents and
Settings\<user>\Application Data\Temp.  If not there, try a search for
the file
and delete it.

You need to delete this file every time you want to run the program so it
may be
worth scripting.

Hope this helps.

johng

I have probably the same problem? Get the error message:

A critical error has occurred. You may be running out of memory, or you
may need
to reinstall Robotics Invention System 2.0

I think a Windows update patch has done the thing, since it used to run
on one
of my XP pc's but suddenly stopped working and I now get the same error
when
installed it on another pc.

I hope LEGO realizes that it is not fair nor acceptable to their
customers if
they abandon RCX support in the future - taking the huge installed base
into
consideration

Regards

Morten

Dear All,

I have probelm to excute RIS 2.0 that enclosed with original package
under
Windows XP system. On the other hand, I found one patch on Lego
officical
site, but it doesn't work when I installed it. And, seems that patch is
not
for that purpose.

Can anyone help me to this issue? Either tell where I can download the
proper patch or full installer?

You reply would be much appreciated & great thanks!

Alan

That did it :)  However I also installed the Ultimate Builders Set, which
gives
me a similar error, as well as complaining about a broken Quicktime
installation.  I saw on the Lego website that this is because of a recent
Quicktime version, but once again the software ran perfectly on the first
run..
I looked in the temp folder but cannot find anything.  Any ideas?

Thanks

Luca
