I can only suggest this:Start you computer from cold start (power on rather than just reset)
Run the Editor. Keep the editor running in the background whilst using the converter and TR game.
I have found that if I exit the editor and then use either of the other two programs, and then reload the editor, it crashes. But if I keep the editor running whilst using the other two, it doesn't.
I hope this fixes the problem. ------------------

yes it is, 16mb would also do, says so on the back of the cdthey do recommend a minimum of 266 Mhz, but I can't see how a slow computer would crash the LE ------------------

GHEEEEESSSSSE!!!!!!!!!
Melanies "old" computer is my "new" one(except I'm 266 MHZ),for another month or so I guess, maybe....
Exactly down to the brand name....and I still got the same prob!
Maybe the room editor just doesn't like us poor old Packard Bell people... 
Sure wish someone could figure this out for us....
Rob, you listening?

Don't buy Packard Bell. No matter how cheap it is, it isn't worth it.
Honestly, I didn't think there were any of them left alive.IP: Logged |

I totally agree with aktrekker, I bought a new Packard Bell, and within a month I had the repair man round! It took the 3 different repair men a month to realize it was the on off switch!!!IP: Logged |
