Got it Allen, Can not try it out yet...Looks like I may be loosing my comp.

Screen keeps blinking to black screen every 20 seconds or so, replaced Monitor, no joy

Going to do a little trouble shooting today..........

May have to be loading up a New Rig...sure gonna miss my XP........sucks

[Allen]

Before you go that far. Check for any thing loose both on the outside and inside. Look for any dirt in the ports and pull each chip out and re-set it. If you have an integrated graphics card maybe time to get an dedicated graphics card.

Allen, thanks for the advice...
I will try that Saturday..As far as our email yesterday, I ended up with the one
that you really did not recommend, after talking to Rep at ReCircuit Refurbishers
I did not take the second one...was not what I thought it was.

So it goes, at least I know someone offers Windows XP comps.

I will return soon....

My worry is no dedicated graphics card (removable). If you can or got the spec from what the integrated graphic card (part of the motherboard and can't be removed) is would be helpfull.

The GeForce 6150LE you have now is a integrated graphic card (non-removed) but I think I could send you the GeForce 6600 I have and I think it would just plug in. Than things are unknow to me. It man need a trip into BIOS to disable the old integrated graphic card.

Thank you Allen,
But the power supply says 250 watt max, I think you told me I needed 400 watt.
Plus, I think I am at the end of the road on this comp...too bad
I have to keep waiting for not only the screen to come back from BLACK but then
wait another minute for it to get rid of the strange Jumble that pops up.

It has taken over 8 minutes to finish this, refurbished comp should be here Friday.
Until then I will stay in touch via my Win7 backup laptop.

Please keep the project rolling, I will return.

Just received my rebuilt XP comp from ReCircuit Computers today.
Fingers crossed, I will start setting it up this weekend.
I only hope that I can be back on the project within a week.

Dave

[Allen]

Fingers crossed.

[No Dice]

I see light at the end of the tunnel, Printer , scanner...All hooked up and working great.

All the stuff to maintain the Free Flight Site working and ready to go, already made some updates "Allen"

Now transferring the CFS1, CFS2 and FS2004 stuff, hope to be back in the game sooner than I thought.

Fingers still crossed.

Dave

[No Dice]

Hi Allen,
Starting to get All my Dice back in order.

Tested most everything, Will be back to work on Lima 85 tonight

Sure glad I had saved my keys for my ASD,FSDS and others.

Thank you for all of your help and offers to help.

Having a small problem with mission builder ?? Will open my old layouts, but not my new layout ??
Found a work around though...If I open the layout with GSL Edit .. all seems to work out fine.

Working on Lima 85 as a test at the moment but before I finish I want to finally get to take a look
at Allen's C1A Trader.................Yep, I think I am back in the game.

Dave

[Allen]

That sounds vary odd...

[No Dice]

Allen,
I finally was able to check out the S2 and C1A, great job as usual. I have 3 different sound Files for them.
I am working on an optional 2d panel............
Question:
I am finally getting my key and joy stick selections set up, other than the Tail hook, wings and flaps are there
any other animations that I need to look at or set up.

Great job Sir,

Dave

PS: I found this pretty good website

replacing half of my 2 car garage....taking up a lot of time.

I don't use any others. There are the Concorde nose keys but I don't think any one uses them for CFS2.

...There are the Concorde nose keys but I don't think any one uses them for CFS2.

It has its uses, like animated aerial refueling probes on jets or ramp doors on the big cargo birds, to name a few.

[No Dice]

Still having a strange problem with Mission Builder not loading my layout files after moving
to my latest XP computer...BUT I still hope to have some new scenery completed this week.

John,

Just wanted to see if you had ever had time to finish some of Als buildings ??

They will come in handy on a few of these Lima sites and Rolling Thunder missions.

Which ones do you want. I can do a pack of what ever you are looking for. I have about four projects that I'm part way through. I'm almost finished with a couple. Let me know what you are looking for and I'll get to it.

OH, I have the CH-47 ready for testing. I just have to do the Readme. I don't want to do anymore readme's. Worst part of the whole process.

[No Dice]

Sets 3 and 4, I forwarded them to you via email in case you did not have them.

Thanks for the help John.
