Another Vista Question - please?

Featured Replies

I've switched over to Vista (hum?!), and am in the process of reinstalling everything.When I launch the 744 load manager, it just closes again. Yes, i know this has come up before, be i'll be darned if i can find it.Can anyone remember the problem?I have run the PMDG reg tool, and i have UAC turned off!EDIT: The MD-11 load manager is fine.

EEEEEK!Back to page three again:-( If nobody can answer that for me, then can anyone tell me if it's possible to enter the load information manually?Would it be somewhere in the 'aircraft.cfg' file?Thanks

Hello PhilI do not have the PMDG 744 but I have some experience of the .cfg file and aircraft loading with regards to the 747-200

Thanks StuartGuess i'll have to email 'support'. Mind you, it's not like they don't monitor this forum though.I believe it's actually called "The PMDG Support Forum";-)

I haven't exactly been 'overwhelmed' with input on this.Does anyone know what the weights would be at default, ie without the load manager having once saved to file?Am I the only one this has happend to?
