Your firewall may be blocking ts from entering the internet so check your FW settings :K

What exactly happens? The screen goes black and nothing happens? Have you tried running the game without sound and in windowed mode? What does output.txt say after the crash? I take alt+tab does not work either?

There seems to be something broken in your Windows. Is everything else really working ok? Have you tried any other games?

Try running Windows update to get all updates, then update your video and audio drivers to the latest possible versions and test again.

Did you try running checkdisk? TS stopped working today, it just closed itself as soon as sliders.exe shows up in the task manager. Not even the editor worked. Turns out there's a corrupt file among the auto-downloaded tracks. I couldn't even delete the folder which it was in... couldn't even look in the folder or explorer shut down. Finally I ran checkdisk and it fixed a few problems, one being a track by Jarno.

80% of problems fixed, the secondary audio card where i use the gameport for gamepad is broken and it crash my window.
Now the pc seems to work but i can reach it is tired, the secondary HD is broken too "DAMNNN", the next chance is to check the powersupply but damn i have an 400W and i have used this configuriation for few mouth...

Dunno, trying other ways..
