nothing works now

[robertemmer]

I bought my upgrade ka and cs and the p-51 and now nothing works. I keep getting the microsoft error. I run fsx and many add ons but this is starting to piss me off after 4 hours and 40 bucks of not working. Everything works but this. If you are wondering, I have a fast system. Id cant fly my a-10 or old ka either. I cant believe its this late and Im sitting here worrying. Any ideas? 3gb switch doesnt work well with 16 gbs of ram. Id appreciate some help.

 

And at this point, 40 bucks thrown in the fire... Why doesnt the ticket system work? Took my 40 plus some others and went out to spend our hard earned money with no support..?????

so you do now it doesn't fully support Win XP anymore right?

ED is transitioning to 64 bit as the memory address system is higher.

So win 7 64 bit and a 64 bit system is your best bet. I wouldn't upgrade to a win8 as it doesn't like you writing to the documents folder.

^ If XP is really the issue, then it should be removed in the 'Minimum Requirements' list for both of those products in the ED E-shop.

 

Some questions:

1. What's the Microsoft error you're getting?

2. Are you running more than one monitor? (If so, check that Full Screen is disabled in the options).

Hi,

 

Apologies if you've already been through this but have you gone through the following? A common issue is the c++ redistributable package not being installed.

The /3gb switch is necessary for XP, you must use it.. Also more detail on the error you are seeing would be helpful. And as an aside, 16gb in a 32bit OS? You are aware it can only ever use 4gb of that, unless you use a 64bit version Windows. That is 12gb going to waste in your computer right now.

Guys, you are too patient.

Given the fact that this is the first post of this guy, to me the content is clearly too outrageous and rude - and too confusing.

No information about the system, the OS version, software (old standalone or DCS World modules), no dxdiag.. but multiple times said that he threw away 40 bucks.

 

Sorry guy, only thing I can say is: good luck solving the problem in YOUR system. It's not the fault of the game.
