Folks,
Can anyone offer any suggestions?
I had to recover my PC, and did a disk format.
So I had to start afresh re-installing FS2004.
I had had FS2004 running happily, with A340 Professional, 737NG, and FS Terrain bolted on and no problems.
But after recovering the PC, and re-installing FS2004, the simulator refuses to work. Installation apparently went perfectly, but once I try to run the programme, it freezes at the introduction screen (the one with the Caravan). I have to do a Ctrl-Alt-Del, which then shows FS2004 'Not responding'.
One other thing. During installation, FS2004 can only see 14GB of hard-disk, rather than the 114GB that is free!
I have tried un-installing all other software in case there is a conflict, but to no effect.
I have tried a full disk scan, which showed no problems.
And I tried disabling Norton (it conflicted when I originally loaded FS Terrain), but again to no effect.
Has anyone suffered the same problem? Or suggest any answers?
Thanks.
