I have an elderly PII 350Mhz machine running XP Pro and fitted with a Rage Pro graphics card.
When I open the graphics window theres a 10s pause before anything happens, if I close it in that period Sixtrack instantly aborts.

A little more information, please ...

How much memory do you have on this machine?





If I've lived this long, I've gotta be that old

192Mb.
The graphics card is reasonable but the monitor's limiting the display to 800 x 600.

Theres a longish pause of whiteness in the graphics box before it goes black and says "measuring performance, ..." and if the window is closed in the white empty period sixtrack instantly aborts.
