Strange Problem when starting activeSkywxem

Featured Replies

Hi,I purchased ActiveSky some days ago, and still have a problem, nobody else seems to have.Every Time I start ActiveSkywxRE, a Windowsinstaller apears and ask me to insert a VBA-Installationdisk, he cannot find VBA6DE.msi.AFAIK this File dosnt exist nowhere in the whole Internet.The curiose thing is, that i can interupt the installer and the Program works fine, it didnt miss anything.System is WinXP pro.Did anybody heared about this before?Please give me some hintsthxRoland

Roland,I have seen this very rarely, usually attributed to Microsoft FrontPage trying to install something for some reason when the internet connection is loaded. It probably has something to do with that (see if it goes away in OFFLINE mode) and if so, then you might want to try checking your internet settings, maybe re-installing your browser. I've seen this about 4 times in the past 4 years... Usually something very strange probably a bug in FP or another application's installation routines. Not attributed to wxRE at all, it has something to do with VB runtime controls...Thanks!-Damian[table border=0" cellspacing="30" cellpadding="0][tr][td align = "left"]Damian ClarkHiFi Simulation SoftwareDeveloper of ActiveSkyThe next-generation weather environment simulation for FS2002!http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky[/td][td]http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky/images/wxrebeta.jpg][/td][/tr][/table://http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky/ima...][/tr][/table

Hi Damian,thanks for the quick response.I nerver thought that ActiveSky has something to do with this Problem, cause nobody else posted this Prob. Anyway, the behavior shows up also in offline mode.Maybee i tuned a bit too much on my system ;-) I will see someday with a fresh install of Windows if the Problem is gone.Thx
