Anyone run across this with capt sim?

I have been trying to redownload the Legendary f-104 that I purchased 2007-07-11 06:07:37 and lost the drive it was on. I had installed it a number of times previosly always on the same pc, just on different drives as I was setting up my system the way I wanted it. After the drive crashed with the f-104 file on it I have contacted capt sim's (customer service?) about it filled out service tickets only to have them cancelled becasue they claim they have answered the question before. Dear Donald Harris,

I follow all instructions download a file calleddsf104_1200.exe restart pc clik install, get message redis and it quits. Tried using there reactivate email same problem. If I ask them about it in a new service ticket they just cancell it and say they answered it before. Anyone know how to get their attention. I am not buying it again, just want what I paid for. Worst c.s I have ever run across.

I have had a similar problem. A little while ago I downloaded the Captain Sim C-130 basic package but a crash rendered my copy useless. I have attempted to re-download the aircraft many times, all unsuccessfully.

I have written to Captain Sim many times, and have only received one reply which basically said the same as they did to you and told me that they could only help if I were to download the entire Pro-package.

I did download the Pro-package and now receive 'some' help when I am faced with a problem regarding their product. This has left me with the opinion that Captain Sim only treat their clients well if they cough up their money first.  >:(

yep...had to reactivate my f104 six months ago.....what a pain...finally got it, but i can't remember how it was resolved ........i guess, getting a direct response from people is getting rarer and rarer every day.......

I follow all instructions download a file calleddsf104_1200.exe restart pc clik install, get message redis and it quits.

Got this redis error as well. With help of CS staff found KB# 1646, this helped. Hope this helps you too.
