Ahoy there! I have a situation that I'd like to get sorted.I have inherited a PC from someone. And it already has Flight Sim X installed, and appears to be quite a powerfull setup?Now, when I start Flight Sim X on this machine, an error box always appears called:Exdok camera addonAccess violation at address 6CE247CF in module 'dinput8.dll'. Write of address 672975AO (or similar)Then another box appears saying that EXCA for FSX has encountered a problem and needs to close.Now I'm no computer genius, so how can I stop that happening?And after googling EZDOK I think I'd like to have it with my Flight Sim X. But if I buy a new copy will it work? Seeing as there is obviously some sort of previous installation on this machine? Unfortunately the original owner of this computer has moved overseas so I can't ask him about it.So any help on1. How to remove EZCA totally from my PC ( I see a world camera reference in views?) and2. Should I buy a new copy, and will it work if there's a previous installation in here?Any help here much appreciated, but please don't be too technical with your repliesCapt G

to remove it go to start->all programs->ezca->uninstallor you can do it in the control panel->uninstall programhave you tried to run both fsx and ezdok as administrator?

I have done the uninstall thing now? But Ezdok universal world camera is still showing in custom views in FSX? It didn't work under Administrator either.

Some friendly advice: imho when you inherit a PC from someone you have to format all drives and install the software you actually bought and own. :( That will solve all problems. If you aren't willing to do so, be prepared to get more problems and to get no support for them because you are using software illegally.Welcome to the forum btw! :(

I'm very keen to buy the EZDOK. But don't want to fork out £25 if it's not going to work. I know I didn't actually buy the fsx originally as it was already installed, but it seems daft to delete a perfectly good program. :(

So, one can not inherit software? I'm just curious. So if somebody has a 10.000$ collection of FS addons, if he dies, it all becomes worthless?

The EULAs all state the license is for a single user. So unless someone can prove the the original licensee who has died is somehow "still using the software", the user inheriting the hardware de facto inherits the licenses to the software installed on that hardware.As for deciding whether to buy EZDOK, all software purchased from Flight1 gets a 30-day no questions asked full refund. See here.Cheers,- jahman.

So if I go ahead and buy EZDOK from Flight1 and still get the 'dinput8.dll' error I can get my money right back?

That's what a 30-day no questions asked full refund means.

Yep, thats the amazing thing about flight1, but I would also head up the ezdok support forum, maby they can help you with your problem.ps and most folks are really helpful and friendy here at avsim, but there are always a few bad apples, good luck

head up the ezdok support forum

Here.Also if you decide to keep EZDOK v. 1.17 (that's the version you're running, right?) you will get a free upgrade to v. 2.0 when released "soon".Cheers,- jahman.

Thanks guys, I'll go ahead and get the latest EZDOK version. And see what happens? WATCH THIS SPACE!

why isn't ezdok 2 being released?

Because Marnifftar has moved to Siberia, "The Gulag" !EZDOK "The Code Monster" finally got him, the poor guy... :(
