Hi,I've just bought AS2004 and installed it along with the alpha update. Everything seems fine - it detects my flight plan, downloads the weather and loads it into the sim (looks much better than the default!), but after a minute or so, the PC locks up solid, requiring a power-off reboot :-(Tried fullscreen & windowed, with no difference.Help!!!!One thing though, every time I restarted it, the weather looked markedly different for what appeared to be the same "clear" conditions. Is this to be expected?My system:Hardware:Dell 8200 - 2.0GHz P4, 512MB RAM, ATI Radeon 9800+ gfx, 120GB HDSoftware:FS9, Ultimate Traffic, various sceneries & aircraft

Typically a driver problem. Please make sure all drivers are up to date. Please let us know if you are still having trouble.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Support

Got new video drivers -- that seems to have cured it. Thanks :-) Tim

Excellent, glad you got it!!Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Support
