I though I would check what the system requirement are for the Turn Entry Program.

I am currently on a Windows 98 System (I have a newer one, but its running Star Wars Galaxies).

The program installed OK, and started up. I also started my Empire OK. It seemed to handle the Update Turn OK, but then died on an Error 7 (Out of Memory). When I started it up again, and tried the Enter Orders button. Same thing happened.

Update : Is seems this is a resource problem. When I have my turn open in the Adobe Acrobat reader, it fails. If I do not have my turn open, it seems to succeed. I think I will still ask the minimum system requirements, then I think I shall shoot Windows :)

The program is a total resource hog. I've found I can run virtually nothing else under Win98 (which has poor memory management at best to boot) AND the turn program. Not Acrobat, not Excel, not even ICQ. I end up not even running Notepad, and printing out my proposed orders so I can enter them.

The program keeps running unless you shut it down with the File (exit) in the top left. If you click the X in the top right it closes but does not shut down. You could have 10-12 instances running :-)

10-12? You have a lot more memory than I do, Martin <L>. But yes, I was using Task Manager to kill it when I exited. Now that there is an "Exit" command, ti's much better...but you still can't close it with the "X".

I usally go into task manager to end all the SNROTE instances that are running after I do a turn entry.
