Did it work before you upgraded to 9.1 while installing it?
NO it just crashes and it appears to be a BEX error?Not sure how to work around that, also in the error message error fault 0x00000005By the way fsx works perfectly on another drivepeter

Yes, that did not work,.....what worked was the followingI looked at the error log and found I had a BEX error, after a bit of work I determined that I need to turn off DEP fully. ( cmd and bxedit run line)I turned off DEP and fs9.1 ranI also had to install the gps.dll but that is a well known error and 9.1 ran and loadedThe program runs well but there are a few compatibility issues , particularly when changing views etc.Peter
