My father had both fs2k2 and fs9 working in his computer before his hard disk failed -- he now has it repaired but now has a problem with 2k2 -- he tells me he gets an error "third party software" but it is with traffic.dll -- he has no extra addons or aircraft, this is "out of the box" he tried both yes and no but the game crashes back to desktop -- I have never had a problem like that -- I don't know what computer he is using except he is using xp and more than 512M ram -- He also says the disks are clean and he has a cd cleaner disk -- It is hard to help him since he is on the west coast and I am on the east coast... Does anyone have any suggestions I can pass on to him??

Thanks for your reply, Hagar! I will pass the info to him and see what happens.

One final note, I did convince my dad to try that fix -- He did it, and said it works like a champ -- He can use fs2k2 on both computers now and asked me to pass along his thanks !!
