rbr wont load

[Arwyn Jones]

hi all , im new to this forum and to rbr on the pc so will probably be asking a few questions if you dont mind! first of all i can no longer play the game, i double click the rbr icon, the warthog image comes up then it plays the sci video but then switches back to desktop, it was working fine last night, hopefully someone can help. thanks

Can you provide a little more info please? eg.
Which version or Windows (XP, Vista, Win 7).
What is your installation path ie. did you install to c:/Program Files or to a different location.
Have you installed the RBR Patches.
Any other background info might help us to get a better idea to help.

There are two patches, you can find them (and info ) here:

What is your normal screen resolution for your monitor? You may need check your Richard Burns Rally.ini file to see if it matches your screen resolution.
