Ok, so I really like this program, with it's programable AI sounds and cockpit ambience. So much so, that it is an integral part of my retro Cold War FS2004. So when I upgraded my motherboard and CPU etc etc, I was gutted to find it asked for a new reg key!The original wont work and the support is non existent for this product now. The last post on the support forum was back in 2008. :doh:
The real irony......... it still is on my daughters PC as she had my old Motherboard and CPU with a cloned hard drive with dual boot xp and Windows 7! Arghh!
I dont really want to delve into the registry, and I dont really know what I am looking for, i dont think It would do any good any way, but I think i'm gonna have to have a go.

Has any one else come across this problem as I know some members here use it?

here's hoping! :worried:

Plenty of discussion about it eg here http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthrea ... at-install
Seems you are beating a dead horse. I used to have it, must have been 6 years ago, and I quite liked it too, though when I got Radar Contact and I think there was a compatbility issue with that prog which caused me to ditch it.

Many thanks for your help Vancouver. I am going to put right some of the misconceptions about the support for this product. After hearing all the bad vibes, I thought what the hell and e-mailed the guy late last night. When i got home this evening the key was in my inbox! :welldone:

I should have done that first methinks :$
