Came across this article. Given the concerns over Windows 10 in the flight sim community I thought people would be interested. Source link: http://www.computerworld.com/article/3046032/windows-pcs/microsoft-backtracks-on-windows-7-support-deadline.html

i have a problem getting any of my WOE installations working... On previous system (win 7) i had all working.... nicely... Upgraded to 8.1 now i cant get them to fire up.... not happy... system is upgraded with new drivers, graphic's, sound etc.... i have tried all compatibility modes & run as admin... there is a lot of settings on nvidia/inspector settings... i used to run : Wings over Africa Wings Over Europe - NATO Fighters Wings Over Europe - Operation Desert Storm Wings Over Europe - Spanish Civil War Wings Over Europe - Timor Wings Over Europe - WWII Wings Over Russia Wings Over Vietnam Now Nothing... Tried new instal off disc & iso... not working. Tried copying old folders over and running game... no good Note : unpatched clean version gave me the red & white logo intro, then black screen, back to desktop. Patched clean version is just a black screen then back to desktop. Even thought about a partition disk, windows 7, dual boot, just to play.... but a recent google search has put me off this idea, because you cant go backwards.. (8.1 - 7) Any Help would be most appreciated. Missing this Game. (Sorry if this is repeated post but i cant find it....) Also i posted this over at A-Team, http://cplengineeringllc_bb.cplengineer ... php?t=1825 And third wire http://bbs.thirdwire.com/phpBB3w/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=9626 Still no joy.... Thanks..
