Hi Chuck....

One of the first things we did...

Darn thing is the computer says everything is OK and there are no red flags anywhere... Shocked

Did you plug in headphones to see if they worked?

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

throwing in my 2 cents worth - you don't have a check mark in a box marked muted in your speakers sound system,,, do you ??? or what happened to me a month ago,,,, I had accidently hit the mute button on my keyboard,,, Duhhhh and wasn't getting any sound till I hit the unmute button. All your cables in the back hooked up properly ?? I dunno' just asking,,, have you tried slamming a bottle of Vodka of your computer several times followed by a 32 pack of beer - sometimes NOT always that helps, other than sitting it out in the street and waiting for a fast moving semi to hit , but that doesn't always work either. as I said my 2 cents worth and thats about what its worth if that ,,,,,

Please do NOT link images, it slows the forums down for other users.

I am wondering if I should just install FSX and the Service Packs rather than FSX Acceleration Expansion Pack as I do not fly the aircraft in the Acceleration Pack.

You can always install SP1 and SP2 at first. Then in future you'll be able to install Acceleration after simply removing the SP2, if needed.

Quote:

Also am waiting for MS Flight to become available and I might forget about FSX altogether....not sure....

For now, MS Flight is scheduled to be the biggest failure of the 21st century.
Until MS change its politics and finally decides to offer a SDK to third-party developpers (freeware addons makers, that is), this game has absolutely nothing to offer to the simmers, and will keep being ridiculous when compared to FSX.
So no, you don't need to worry about Flight at all.

Got bloom ?
Got mountains ?
Got damage ?

Thanks Jetranger...

I am using a Logitech G15 Keyboard and the Mute button shows OFF by looking at the Icon of the Speaker at the bottom right corner of my monitor.

Have checked the cables several times.

Starting to think it is the Sound Card as all I get is Static from the speakers or headphones.
