Which patch version have you tried?  Maybe you can try the latest 
development version if you haven't already, from

Hmm, ok then we'll have to figure out what the error message it is 
that's shown...

So, open a command line window and enter "cd \games\ttwin95" or whatever 
folder you installed it in.  Then enter "ttdpatchw" and write here what 
the output is.

I have not seen this error before, but as requested:

C:\MPS\TTDHQ>ttdpatchw
Unknown language '4105' specified in the environment
variable LANG or LANGUAGE. Known languages:
 English, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Hungarian,
Italian, Nor
wegian, Polish, Russian, Spanish
Use SET LANG=language to select the language.
E.g. SET LANG=french

So I tried adding the line SET LANG=english to the ttdpatch cffg file and
still no luck.

THanx for the assistance.

You have to set this variable in the settings for your OS.

You can either make a batch file (e.g. startttd.bat) and put in the 
following:

set lang=english
ttdpatchw

Then run that batch file instead of the patch.  Or you can wait for alpha 
48, which will automatically revert to english if the language is 
unknown.

Well it had to happen, it was time to redo my HD anyways, so after safely
storing all important files to DVD's I reformated the HD and reinstalled
everything, then with much anticipation I installed Transport Tycoon Deluxe
for windows with the latest patch and BOOM, she ran like a charm.
So something somewhere was screwed in my old setup HD, its just bloody
weird.
But thanx for all the help, time is short now I NEED TO PLAY TTDLX :)
