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.

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

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

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!

(...) 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 (...) (16 years ago, 24-Jul-08, to lugnet.robotics)
