Hi , my 1st post here.

 

this week I updated my old XP system for a new rig which came with Win 7 installed and all the associated problems (for me anyway) when transferring from a stable and reliable XP where everything installed without a glitch and operated flawlessly.

 

Reading everything I could from other posters I managed to get ALMOST everything back... all but my beloved Ez_landmarks which I really like.

 

I can not get past the 1st step where it states that it was not meant for a 64 bit operating system and to contact the supplier...which I did , sent an email to abacus days ago but doesn't seem like there will be a reply.

 

Then Googled for a solution and came up with several hits all eminating from this forum.

A few posters stated that they had it up and running without problems BUT unfortunatelly no one said how they installed it.

Those posts are several years old so I thought I'd try here to see if someone can help me.

 

I installed in the following way.....

 

Clean install so not to bring accross some of the old clutter .

Installed in C;\Fs9

Had activation keys for all my bought program and installed the following

 

Ultimate Terrain

GE Pro2

FsPassangers

World wide 19m 38m 76m mesh

Ez Scenery ..from the same people which installed and operates no problems

---------------------------------------------------------

Other stuff such as HD clouds

alternate water

alternate trees etc

Traffic tools

--------------------------------------------------------

 

I originally had slight hicups with FsPassangers and Ez Scenery where the screen sometimes went blank but then I did a troubleshoot and Win 7 suggested that I run Fs9 in XP Service Pack 2 mode which I did and now everything works perfectly.

 

All but Ez-Landmarks without which its just not the same.... can not even install it because of the 64 bit thing.

 

I have a fairly basic rig ...

upon 1st load of Fs9 I ran on Unlimited frame rates and got between 45-50, now I have it locked on 28fps where it stays without dropping much at all

 

Basic specs

Intel Celleron dual core 2.6

4 Gig memory

1 gig graphics

500 Gig hard drive (440 free)

 

So if someone can get my EZ-Landmarks up and running I would be gratefull

 

Regards

Rob

I have'nt dealt with Abacas in many years. But I do know Flt 1 makes a simular landmark program called FSDiscover. Works well in win7 64 and comes with 30 days $$ back refund if you don't like.
