Re: Heeeelllllppppppp!!!!

I've deleted and re-installed, changed drivers, deleted oleacc.dll due conflict with ie7, rolled back to ie6, installed firefox, various others including DirectX, all to no avail. I'm at the point of giving up, the only option left open to me is to reformat the hard drive and re-instal windows. Only...

If you're VFR and the weather deteriorates, then get down on the ground asap. IFR suggests pre-flight planning and checking of weather. Destination should be planned using precision approach minima and alternate using non-precision approach minima. Real world, you would have the option of listening ...

Re: Heeeelllllppppppp!!!!

"Using search, I have the FS9 one at 5kb and the System 32 one at 160kb?" Exactly what I have except my fs9 file is named oleac.old. Have you checked DirectX? I can't help but think that somehow this is graphics related since lowering flaps cause animation movement, at least in spot or to...

Re: Heeeelllllppppppp!!!!

Is oleacc.dll supposed to be the same file in FS9 and system 32. Using search, I have the FS9 one at 5kb and the System 32 one at 160kb? I've removed FS9, then removed IE7, and reloaded FS9. Got all the way round the circuit at Seattle and landed, flapless. Once stationary on the runway, I lowered f...

Re: Heeeelllllppppppp!!!!

Sorry to hear that. I think by now, I would have tossed the computer out the window! :brick: Anyway, are you saying you had version 9.0 of FS9 or version 9.1 - the patched version? Where was the oleacc.dll file, in the FS9 directory? As I mentioned I had that file in two locations in C:\windows, an...

Re: Heeeelllllppppppp!!!!

Cheers Nb. Thinking about it, when I reloaded FS9 last night, at first run attempt it came up with a "standard" "......has encountered a problem and needs to close". This was what the event viewer message referred to. Subsequent runs loaded ok, but after starting the flight and a...
