How do you run as the Administrator? My brother is having problems, he has Vista (I haven't upgraded yet) and he keeps getting some error message up saying he needs Administrator Rights. He can't get the game to run at all and is getting frustrated, I don't know that much about Aministrator Rights or Vista so can't really help him, but he is desparate to play this game as he as just got an X52 Pro, and I gave him my old Track IR2.

Simply right-klick on the Lockon.exe and there should be a context-menu "run as admin".

 

Unfortunately you have to do this everytime u start the game. Only other option is to turn it off completly which would also kill the biggest security feature in Vista...

It's not a problem... the biggest Flaming Cliffs problem with Vista O/S is when you enter the game and click FLY button, game is freezing. You must shut down it by taskbar. It happens very often and there is no solution yet. So ready to break your PC :wallbash:

Neither do I. Never had it on any of the 2 systems I had running Vista. Ever. Not even when I tried to run it on the 64 bit version.

Yes! You must deactivate the "User accounts steering" in Vista! ;)

 

PS. I have the G15 board and any macro file works fine!

I dont have that problem.

 

It's very interesting because my 2 friends have the same problem who use Vista O/S with FC. Even they've different computer configuration than mine.

LOMAC does crash on my Vista 64 only when I exit. Which is not a big deal since I'm exiting anyway and I just end the process in task manager.

 

Problems can exist on one system configuration and not on another. It can be blamed on the hardware or the OS.

 

But after reading your system spec which is almost identical to mine TorwaK, except that I didn't overclock like you did, I'm wondering if its your overclocking that's causing the instability. My system spec:

 

E6600 @2610Mhz (1160 FSB)

Asus P5N32-E SLI (680i SLi)

eVGA 8800GTX

Corsair Dominator TWIN2X2048-8500C5D 2GB Kit (5-5-5-18 )

I have only had one problem with vista... in multiplayer, even with your engines off, you hear the constant (very loud) growl as if your ABs were on.

 

Other than that, Everything Vista is ok for me. I must say, i actually like the OS.

DCS Wishlist: 1) FIX THE DAMN RIVERS!!! 2) Spherical or cylindrical panorama view projection. 3) Enhanced input options (action upon button release, etc). 4) Aircraft flight parameter dump upon exit (stick posn, attitude, rates, accel, control volume, control-surface positions, SAS bias, etc). 5) ADS-33 maneuver courses as static objects. 6) Exposed API or exports of trim position and stick force for custom controllers. 7) Select auto multiple audio devices

Yeah I forgot about it, here is the same... sometimes when you quit Lock-On to windows it hangs on memory and needs to shutdown by taskbar.

Jut to be sure I worked my PC for a few days with default BIOS settings and there was no overclock. All time I got the same result so I'm sure its not about overclocking.

I'm new to this simulator, just installed it today. I've got exactly the same problem. On my rig it happens about 9 out of 10 times, so it's pretty hopeless atm. Any solution or workaround to this problem yet?

 

My rig is a E6600 - 2GB PC6400 - 8800GTX - Vista 32bit

 

Nothing overclocked.

You are correct Konkussion. Especially if you use the transparency feature. Even FSX disables it before launching. I tried and disable all Aero features for testing. I was getting less crashes, but I still had some, but less is the key word. Then again, none would be premium. lol
