Threre are two fixes to the  "A critical error has occurred" problem.

One fix is to uninstall the latest Quicktime and install the older Quicktime
version from the RIS CD (or any Quicktime version older than version 7).

Another fix (described earlier in this thread) is to remove the file "Ris
2.0.mov.#res" from the
local Temp directory right before starting the RIS software.  I use the
following batch file to do this.

--------------------------------
@echo off
echo this script runs the RIS LEGO Robot software
echo after deleting a temporary movie file that interferes with Quicktime
working correctly

del "%temp%\RIS 2.0.mov.#res"

set dir=%PROGRAMFILES%\LEGO MINDSTORMS\RIS 2.0

if  exist "%dir%"  goto DOIT

set dir=%PROGRAMFILES(x86)%\LEGO MINDSTORMS\RIS 2.0

if  exist "%dir%"  goto DOIT

echo did not find any RIS installation
goto END

:DOIT
echo found "%dir%"
cd "%dir%"
LaunchRis2.exe

:END

I know what the answer to this one is! I solved the "A critical error has occurred" problem with Robotics Invention System 2.0 by uninstalling QuickTime and installing the QuickTime version from the RIS 2.0 disk. Don't forget to delete the (...) (13 years ago, 2-Jun-11, to lugnet.robotics)
