Im geting black vertical line - FAQ
I haven't been able to get Ride Runner to run correctly after using the new install. The splashscreen for my skin shows then I just get a thin black line on the screen. I can see that RR is running on the task list. Any ideas?

I checked and fastmode is set to -1. I tried 0 and 1 but neither worked. I've attached a screenshot and the debug output if that's helpful. Thanks for the help.
Jeez, we haven't had that one for ages.
Missing background , background path incorrect or missing graphic file.
MJO, its all in the debug

The path is correct and the skin images are there (menu_OFF.png, menu_ON.png). Is it possible there is some dll that isn't registered correctly or something? I am getting the same error with the default carwings skin. Also, when I goto my old Road Runner directory and try to run I get that same problem, even though it was working prior to the install.
thanks.
actualy that error can be GENERATED from alot of different reasons
if a bitmap fails to create
which if fastmode = -1, could be GDI issue
which there is gdi, dlls
you did use the installer right?
if so that dll would be registered
GDIPlusWrapper.dll
AND u have to have GDI+ on ur system, which it IS in normal XP
but if u "lite"d the os...

FYI
the Microsoft dll is
gdiplus.dll
which i do stick in the RR dir
but it prob already is on ur system
in system32
ALSO WinSxS (Side by Side) should handle this
and the correct dll should load
UNLESS u delete, or messed with WinSxS
u can delete the gdiplus.dll in RR dir, it shouldnt ever be used anyway (prob could elim from installer)
(NOT GDIPlusWrapper.dll, that IS BEING used)

Mitch you are a genius! I ran regsvr32 on GDIPlusWrapper.dll and now its working. I did run the installer so not sure why it didn't work correctly. Anyway, thanks for the help.
yes, i was about to post
i unregged my wrapper
and it did the same
i dont see how the registration failed, if u used the installer
unless U RAN the uninstall on another directory!!!!
like u installed it twice, then uninstalled one of them!!!
that would cause the .dll to be unregged!!!
