Reality XP GS530 and W7 64 bit

Featured Replies

Hello,

 

since I've changed my OS from XP 32 bit to W7 Pro 64 bit, I've never managed to install it. I use the GPS on the Turbine Duke by Real Air: as I select the aircraft from FSX menù, FSX crashes. No problems with Turbine Duke installed only.

 

Any solutions?

 

Thanks

 

Giorgio

Giorgio,

 

Did you purchase the new 530WAAS from RealityXP?

Not sure I understood your question, but I've already bought the product about two years ago... What do you exactly mean by saying "the new"?

Giorgio,

 

Your subject title said 500 ... that is old.

500WAAS is new.

But I still do not understand if I have to update the product through the "update manager" or do I have to buy the 500WAAS ex novo?

First.

Which one did you purchase?

Searching through my mail box, I found the one from Reality XP.

 

The exact name of the product is:

 

RealityXP - Reality XP Garmin GNS 530 WAAS

 

The date of purchase is 05/04/11

Ok,

 

Is this on a new computer with the new OS Win7-64 already installed on it?

Well, I installed the GPS once and then immediately removed it due to the aforementioned problems. However the computer is new with the OS already installed on it

Ok,

 

New PC with Win7-64.

 

Did you transfer 530WAAS setup files from the old PC to set up the new PC?

Yes

You should go to Flight One and read about transferring to a new PC.

 

Download a fresh copy of your purchased from Flight One and do the install on your new PC.

Ok, thanks. You are really kind. I'll take a look and I'll let you know if it works in the next days.

 

Again thank you for your support

Giorgio,

 

You are welcome.

 

It took me a week to set up my new Win7-64 PC. It is a real pain!

But, it was also a chance not to reinstall software that I regretted purchasing from prior years.

Gives MSFS a "fresh" start.

I'm back. Yesterday I installed the Turbine Duke+GNS 530 WAAS re-downloaded from the flight one manager and... yes it seems the problem is sorted out. In the next days I'm not able to perform a test flight (I'll make one in the weekend), but at least the sim doesn't crash anymore when selecting the aircraft.

 

Thanks again vonmar!!

 

Giorgio
