Tried that but still no luck. CD spins up but clicking "play" has no effect. What gets me is that the game ran perfectly fine before.

Yes, I did...still no help. cfsconfig seems to run fine. I don't even get a splash screen coming up.

Hello all, I have a rather strange problem and I hope you might be able to help. I had a fresh install on CFS 3.1 on my comp, running Vista, ready and waiting for OFF to arrive. OFF arrived and I installed it as per the instuctions and ended up getting the "pilot saying 'clear' and then the game hanging" problem as outlined on the FAQ. As per the FAQ I downloaded and installed the Direct X files. This did not solve the problem. I decided to do a complete uninstall and re-install of CFS 3 and OFF. I did this by using the uninstall .exes for both games as well as deleting all the files they left behind (in user/documents and user/appdata/local etc. etc.). I did a complete re-install of CFS 3 (including browsing the disc and running the setup file as an admin) and now it won't run at all! Every time I click on the icon (set to WinXP SP2 compatability mode and to run as an admin) I can hear the cd spin up, the comp load for a bit and then...nothing. If I open Task Manager, I notice that cfs3.exe and ~f2d055.tmp are running under "Processes" but nothing is open under applications. Obviously, with CFS3 not working, if I instal OFF over the top of it, I still just get the "clear...hang" as CFS 3 can't load. I've tried updating graphics drivers and even a system restore and nothing has worked. As I said, CFS3 has run fine on this computer before. Any ideas what to do? I'm very eager to try OFF. Cheers
