Crash to desktop....
I have FScof... and a decent machine to run it on... P4 at 2 ghz and 512
RAM... graphics are GForce2 with 64mb on it... Directx9 is installed, driver versions are 6.14.10.4523 I had been able to load and run just fine for a while, aside from a initilization failure after deleteing an aircraft that made the system unstable (went ahead an put the plane back in to clear the error, but have no idea how to delete the AC without causing errors, previous versins were as simple as deleting the appropriate folder). Have made NO changes to system as far as software is concerend in a couple of weeks, was able to run sim fine as of yesterday morning. For that flight i used a supersonic transport (forgot which one, similar in appearance to concord, but thats not it, and its not the soviet one either, but a ficional aircraft in American and other liveries, well rated by flightsim.com). Flew from Johnson Atoll to Honolulu intntl, not on a flight plan, just farting around and pointed NE till i saw the islands on the GPS visual approach and landing, taxi to gate. Since then when trying to load the sim i get the usual PITA message about FSSound.dll (current version but stil lhas to ask if i want to load it for some reason). Loading continues for a few seconds, and as soon as the "select a flight" screen appears it immediatly crashes to desktop. I am assuming that the SST is effin it up some from the select flight screen, but have no idea how to work around this to get a different aircraft selected for startup. Have tried rebooting system, no joy (worked before but not now)... Any ideas how i can get this darn thing to boot so i can fly again?

Heh, fixed my own problem... went to the flight simulator folder in my
documents just for gits and shiggles... found a couple of aptly named files to delete, previous flight or something like that, deleted it and its associated wx file... restarted sim, got the same FSSsound error, hit yes to load, and got a error message stating something that the requested flight could not be loaded, and would attempt to load default... finally success and here i sit looking at the create a flight screen... wonder why that plane (Shigeru Tanaka's sstnoam.zip A-ST SST2010 North America) was causing problems..... -- HPCode(1.1)-G PS++COS++POA++GOF+++*OOTP+++FF-QS DD+++HB++TR++AR++AT---*CM+++ "nooneimportant" wrote in message news:hnQvb.209376$275.781812@attbi_s53...
