A cry for help!Just lately I switched to Windows XP Professional, because my windows ME was too unstable.In the beginning, all went right, until I wanted to fly online.First I had troubles, because SB couldn't find the multiplayer session, although I seemed to be online and I managed to fly one flight, even with voice controller. I resolved the problem, with unchecking my firewall in XP. It worked!!! But then the misery started!!! I still can't see any other airplane at the Airport and when I try to find myself at Servinfo, SI has positioned me some miles away from the airport. And when I click on my airplane (in Servinfo), I get all kind of funny messages.Anybody ANY idea ?I've lost all my inspiration and I really want to fly a decent flight online, but I can'tThanks in advance !!Kor

Try http://vatsim.net/prc Kor.The XP firewall does need to be switched off but Zone Alarm (free version) works OK.You may need to turn off the following XP service SSDP Discovery Service and also Universal Plug and Play Device HostThe reason Si places you miles from where you are may be because decimal point is a comma (,) and not a full stop (Period) (.) Check in Regional and Language Options in Control Panel.HTH
