No matter what I do, I can't seem to get the CS C-130 started up. since I'm cheap, I bought the Just Flight package, so I can't ask for support in the CS forums. I've followed videos and tutorials step by step, exactly. I've even tried reinstalling. On installation, McAfee falsely labeled the ACE as a trojan and removed it, but I can live without it. I'm just wondering if anyone has had or could solve these issues. (minus the trojan one, I've all ready contacted McAfee)
-edit- I should have posted this in the Payware section...

I have had problems in the past with it, though I don't know what causes it.
Have you tried using the cold & dark saved flight?

That seems odd. Just Flight is a reputable supplier.

This tute might help. It's all far too complicated for me. http://www.fsstation.com/tutorials/captain-sim-lockheed-c130.html

I think I found a solution. If I move the condition levers from ground stop to run without any power, it seems to work.

It is very tempermental.  I have had the CS C-130 for about a year now and just when I think I have it figured out on a working startup checklist from cold and dark, it fails to start.  The ONLY failsafe I have found is to keep one engine spinning if I am doing a short layover.
