Hi Bryan..I second the QW787..an FS2Crew 787 would add the missing link for it and open a completely different experience. Best way to put it, I am spoiled by FS2Crew. I have it for just about everything I fly. Hope to see it soon should you decide to accept this mission. Don Brashears

Yes..I do..I have been stuck with updates from Microsoft as time had already passed before I realized what they messed up. The latest update to 1709, OS build 16299.98, has helped because I have been able to complete a flight with the 777 in fsx-se. However, the 737 brings up the error creating child window the first time you try to use the menu, followed by crash to desktop. I have heard the Aerosoft A320 is working as well but I haven't had time to confirm it. Also, Fs2crew is also a possible problem.

I currently have the FSX version of Level-d 767 working in a Steam only with Win 8.1 Pro 64 bit very well. Do you think that the button version of FS2Crew 767 would work as well? Don Brashears dbrashears1@comcast.net

To all that may be bashing Windows 8, I thought I would report my findings. I am running FS9 on a Win 8 64 bit system. AMD FX2 processor, Radeon 4800, Gigabit mainboard with 4 gb ram. I did run into the GDI not showing the aircraft previews, but I found that was only in full screen. If you go to a windowed mode, all is well. Works like a charm. I have for extras the PMDG 747, PSS 777 and 757, Level--d 767, and the WIlco airbus series 1 and 2 with the evolution upgrades. All is working fine. Including the PSS and wilco radar. So far all my payware scenery is working fine. I have also installed FSBuild and HiFi's ActiveSky Evolution and Active Sky Graphics. Pretty much the same system I have working under Win XP. The only thing really different thus far is the Aircraft Preview not showing properly in full screen mode. But using FS9 in windowed mode for the aircraft selection, then going to full screen once all is loaded, is not a big deal. Definetly workable. I can say without a doubt FS9 is working much better in a 64bit system. Very fluid, even in the heaviest of scenery. Thought everyone might like this update. I would caution everyone to read up on adminitrator rights and how to change things in Win 8. In most cases all has to be installed as an admin and FS9 run the same way. By the way my FSbuild is working perfectly and pulling wind info from ASE. I have other scenery and aircraft to install as well, but I do not see a problem with it. Will update this post as things progress. Don Brashears

Got it figured out. I had installed the 32bit version of Win 8. I reinstalled the 64 bit version and all is well. Graphics are killer. This is going to be fun.

I asked because mine is blowing up going to the game. The menu works but going to say Intsant Combat it starts the install and dies on me. Any ideas?

Any chance that DCS WORLD WILL RUN UNDER WINDOWS 8?

Now that it seems American Airlines has the A319CFM and the A321IAE on order, is anyone going to take on the Wilco version? I know that the Project Airbus A320 has been done. Just wondering if it is one we can look forward to. DonB

Hi Guys: I have an upgraded Win8 pro 32bit system and have successfully installed FS2004 with the 9.1 update. It works thus far. Only issue is the black screen for the 3d model on A/C selection. Not sure why at the moment. I did install it to another drive and folder (D:\FS2004) rather than MS's preference. Next issue will be to install software for Saitek X-52 joystick and Pedals. Also FSBuild, FSUIPC, ASE, and the more complicated aircraft from PMDG, Level-d, and Wilco. As well as scenery up the wazu. Hope it works. I will post the results as they occur in hopes of a successful upgrade. Don Brashears

Question Before Purchase
dbrashears replied to dbrashears's topic in FS2CREW: PMDG 747 (Legacy Voice Control)
Thanks for the info Bryan..I got the PMDG B747 VC version installed along with the SAPI 5.1 from MS. Will do the voice train a little later and then take the Queen out for a little spin later. Will let you know how it goes. I suspect a lot of voice training will be required with my southern accent as it is. Don Brashears -
I know this is a stupid question but here goes. I currently have the PMDG B747 Button control version. Do you have to uninstall that version first before installing the Voice Control version? I am running Win XP and FS9. I hope the voice control version works well because I want it for the PMDG B747F as well. I know the button control will not support the freighter. Don Brashears
