Running XP SP2 with AMD Athalon 64 Processor 3200+ 1.00 GHz 950M Ram.

When the client starts up the boats are there breifly, then they chance to colored dots only. There are no wind arrows, iso or pressure lines or traces. The download was 7.12MB V0.00
Beta6 Changing items in the "SHOW" dropdown box makes no difference.

What am I doing wrong? Something stupid?

Thanks
I've heard this before. If you go to Show->Overlays, and set it to none, can you see something then?

Are you running 64-bit windows or 32 bit?
Selecting no overlays changes nothing.

I am not sure if running 32 or 64 bit, it is on my home PC and I am not there now. How do I check that?

I am having the same problem on a Toshiba laptop at home also, but not on the laptop I am using now (ACER)
Can you think of some kind of software you're running on the two troubled PCs, that you are to using on the computer that is working?
No,

Two different machines, one with virus protection one without. Different Processors and different programs. The only thing in common would be the Internet connection DSL One is hardwired, other on netwok router.
Does the clock in the top left corner keep ticking?
I believe so, But I will check later and post a new reply
Clock is ticking
The clock was still ticking, I checked and I am running 32 bit, changed to 16 bit but it made no difference.

I deleted the program,restored my computer to another date and ri-installed the program, still the same problem.
These are the errors I recieve when I shutdown the client, Does this shed any light on my problem?

Viareggio Bastia Viareggio 2026

Our sixth race of nine to celebrate all things Mediterranean - fickle winds, history and olive oil - was planned to be our third buddy-up with another incredible Italian event, the Viareggio Bastia Viareggio (or BVR for short). Unfortunately, in-real-life the BVR has been cancelled this year. But online we shall race it never the less. It’s a quickie – a 160nm roundtrip there-and-back in classic Class 40. Have fun, and if you’re planning a BBQ, piccola isola Capraia halfway across is simply lovely!

Shetland Race 2026 - Leg 2


After the thrill of the first leg, we don't linger long in Lerwick, Shetland. Following brief but joyous celebrations, it's time to set sail back across the North Sea to Bergen, Norway, for the gripping second leg of the Shetland Race 2026!

Covering another unpredictable 190 nautical miles, tactical depth and fierce competition await. This year, we take the helm of the Linjett 33. Designed by Mats Gustavsson in 1994 for Sweden's historic Rosättra Båtvarv, this sturdy, quality cruiser-racer has been a Sailonline favourite in northern waters since 2010. Whether you are chasing victory or savoring the voyage, hoist your sails and let the journey home begin!

Brisbane to Keppel Tropical Yacht Race 2026


When the winter weather turns cool in southern Australia, sailors head up to the warmer tropics. Sailors from all over the world make their way to The Great Barrier Reef for the big winter regattas at Hamilton Island, Airlie Beach and Magnetic Island.
This year's B2K will start on 20 June to offer an event suited to a broader range of boats. Sailonline is, once again, joining with the racers from RQYS to race the 343 nautical miles from Brisbane to Keppel Island, this time in our First 44.7. It might be winter down under, but all you will need is shorts and t-shirts.

Newport Bermuda Race 2026


The 636-mile Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet and the Sydney Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. First raced in 1906, now in its 54th biennial, the Race can again also be participated in online. In real life, the race is open to entry in four different division – Double-Handed, St. David's Lighthouse, Gibbs Hill Lighthouse, and Finisterre Division – which in the past we have also offered online. This year, however, our online race will be all-in one-design in silky swift Club Swan 50 yachts, so that your results can count towards SOL’s SUPerBUDdy title, whilst hopefully still giving you a chance of overall line honours against the fastest yachts of the real-life Gibbs Hill Division, especially if you can find some forecast winds that don’t quite work out that way on the real water!
