Nigel,
I know this is frustrating but you need to give some more information before people can start helping you diagnose the problem. Is your OS Windows XP, 7, 8, or 8.1? Do you have information on what kind of hardware your computer has ( i.e. Graphics card) etc? Do you have other A2A products that work okay? Can you list which updates you installed and the order you installed them ( since for the 377, for instance, they don't all apply depending on when you purchased the plane). Any information at all will help others to begin helping you!

So, when you are in the 'select aircraft' screen and you select the Strato-Cruiser the aircraft shows up as a skeleton? In other words, as the aircraft turns in preview mode, you can't see the exterior, but you see instead the interior. It rotates twice then closes down to the desktop?

Do you get any error messages before or after the CTD?

Hello,

Sorry for the issues you have encountered. You did message me multiple times but only posted once and didn't reply to my forum post. Please remember that I receive a lot of messages each day, regularly meaning my in-box fills up, so the best place to post first is always the actual forums in the thread you create so myself other members of the team and in this case the community can easily and quickly help.

This one sounds like a simple issue of trying to run an add on on a computer that doesn't meat the requirements. Have you updated your FSX with the service packs from Microsoft?

Running an FSX SP2 aircraft on an old FSX installation will cause the sort of error you are seeing. Once you have updated your FSX using the two FSX service packs all should be working OK.

Hello Nigel we are happy to help but you have to help us to help you.

So did you end up installing the two FSX service packs? In which case it means the error was because your FSX was not updated.

Assuming you are now updated to FSX Service pack 2 did you then reinstall the b377 or just try running FSX?

Did you restart your system after updating your FSX installation?

Thanks,
Lewis - A2A Simulations

Hello Nigel,

the purchase is stored with your account. Simply log into the store to download again.

Can you please confirm what happened when you installed FSX SP1, did it install? Also with SP2? As this would indicate clearly that the issue was an FSX issue and not a B377 issue.

thanks,
Lewis

Nigel, you don't have to buy it again, you can download it again off the site. If you've used all five of your downloads, Lewis can reset them for you! Hang in there and don't give up. Take your time and give everyone here as much information as you can!
