Okay, before i go on, i need to say that i do know that the DLS had problems last month, but do not know if they're over yet. I also don't know if the problem i'm about to mention is still happening as i can't get to my trainz computer right now.
So, to start off, last month i upgraded to a new computer, as my system built to run TRS2006 couldn't handle TS2009 and finally crashed on me. It's windows 7 with 4 megs of ram, i know that much, but agian, i can't get to my trainz computer so i can't check the rest, assuming it matters.
So, after installing and putting in my "emergency cache" of engines i can't live without (i.e. bdaneal's steamers
) i went onto the DLS for the first time. It asked me to input my username and password, but that was no big deal as i assumed it would need me too since i was acessing from a new computer. But when i tried to download something (don't remember what, i do remember it was a traincar) i got that lovely "Internet explorer cannot display webpage," page crammed between the header and footer of the DLS webpage. Note i was trying to download through the webpage, as i've never had luck with the DLS tab in CMP/CM2.
No big deal though, i thought, since i knew the DLS was having problems at the time. I just waited and worked through the search function on the DLS tab in CM2, and tried a few times to make it work.
After a month of trying, i still couldn't get the DLS webpage to work and still got the lovely "IE cannot display webpage" page. It didn't work, at all.
Is it something i did when i got the new computer? I'm at a total loss. This never happened when i got on the DLS on the old computer for the first time, never once. I'm not sure what's going on. Any help would be appreciated.
