Running FS98 fine on a Viglen Home-Pro Awesome Pentium 450/512k 64bit 100MHz, loaded FS2000, it runs the Microsoft video and music, goes to the pic of Concorde taking off, then crashes, any suggestions? I've uninstalled and instaled a few times, wiht same result. tries a custom load, no difference....some of MS websites suggestions come close, but not close enough..heeeeeelp!!!!!!!!

FS2K needs something approaching 612mb of space on your hard drive to load it. If you are using PRO that is, but you will still need 500mb for the standard. That could be one problem.

Then you need a minimum of 64mb of RAM, ideally it should be 128mb. That could be another problem.

Is it a genuine copy or a copy of genuine? The latter won't work at all.

One way you can install it if, autorun is not working cortrectly, is to put the disk in the CD-ROM drive and don't let it autorun. Then go to Windows Explorer and click on the prog that shows in the CD-ROM drive. NOT the plus sign. Look for the set-up icon and start it from there. If it doesn't start, I am afraid you might have insufficient 'umph in your pooter. It happens.

That's weird.....I have found that my FS2K Pro crashes as well. I have a Time machine: 500Mhz, 128MB RAM, bla bla bla. I have just installed a Phoenix Simulation 747-400 - FANTASTIC!!!!!

Anyone out there that has an answer to our problems?????
