Old Tiger, I wouldn't overwrite. I just downloaded it and had a look. The original aircraft.cfg file will be overwritten. I merely changed the name of the new aircraft file to reflect the new aircraft name. ...and VOILA! TWO Do 17s in BoB. :D I have already alerted Clive by PM.

True :isadizzy:! My Win XP version has the option; but I see my Win 7 computer doesn't! Another classic example of "progress" as far as Microsnot propeller-heads are concerned: presumably we are too stupid to adjust our own computers? What a pain.

Daiwilletti replied to a thread Black Screen in CFS3 General Discussion

Hi in Win 7 go to C:\Windows\System32\dxdiag.exe. I always set this up as a shortcut on my desktop because it has useful stuff in it. When you run this you will find a tab under which you can adjust sound acceleration. Slide back to medium rather than full acceleration. Just a left field option to reduce demand on the system.

Daiwilletti replied to a thread Black Screen in CFS3 General Discussion

Oh, that changes things. If its only CFS3 and not a general crash whatever you are working on, then its not so likely to be the CPU overheating. I've had problems with CFS3 freezing and sound looping, but its usually because of a glitch in the install of an aircraft, which becomes a problem when the game tries to spawn. But no black screen! That suggests hardware, CFS3 is graphics intensive so we're heading back towards looking at the vid card/drivers! Just a left field thought - what about backing off sound acceleration to medium under DXdiag?

Daiwilletti replied to a thread Black Screen in CFS3 General Discussion

Actually re-reading your first symptoms, my guess would be its a CPU issue not video card. Things like sound looping would not be affected by a dodgy video card or drivers. Hence one thing to look at is re-seating the CPU using the proprietary gunk. IIRC, one of my Nvidia tools allows monitoring of CPU temp as well as Various video card temps and fan speeds. Do you have something that tells you your CPU temperature? If its anything like my comp, you will have less and less time to test each time you start up. HTH,

Daiwilletti replied to a thread Black Screen in CFS3 General Discussion

Hi Gecko, I've had similar issues recently. - the main problem came down to not having the CPU well seated with gunk. This made the CPU overheat. At first I could play for 10 minutes but the time got shorter and shorter. - Another thing I've done is quite simple. I had an enormous number of things running from the one multi-board from one power socket (computer power, monitor power, external HD power, scanner power, etc). I ran an extension lead from a nearby power socket and ran ONLY the PSU from it - this even made a difference to the quality of the video output! HTH

1PanzerLAH, The aircraft in question IS in the Solomon Islands Update 1.54.exe. Look in the aircraft folder in your CFS3 PTO Solomon Islands install for the folder named a_20C_070. If you don't see it, then it may not have been installed properly. I hope this helps. :D
