+SidDogg Posted August 16, 2007 Posted August 16, 2007 Hello, all. I have just bought a new computer [the other one died =( ], and it operates Windows Vista. I don't mean to sound redundant, but I HAVE read the thread on Windows Vista and Strike Fighters, and implemented all the proposed fixes. However, when I start it up, even BEFORE i can get to the main screen, I get a dialog box with a "FlightSim stopped working" error, and it tries to "gather information". I have already downloaded the DX Web updater, and now have the latest DX drivers. NOTE: It WORKED on Vista BEFORE I applied the Latest Service Packs to it..... now that I attempt to apply the Service Packs, they seem to REFUSE to install properly..... PLEASE HELP Quote
MigBuster Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 Firstly check which version you are installing clean from the disk before any patches are applied - should be in the bottom right hand corner of the main screen. You may not need to install any patches over the initial install. Quote
Guest Sony Tuckson Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 DX updater won't help you under Vista as it will try to update the DX 10 version You need to download the full DX9.0C installer and use this one Quote
