Cannot 'select a flight'.

[marvingrunt]

I'm not sure if this forum is the right place for this, but when I start FS 2004, everything works just fine, except that if I select one of the pre-loaded flights, as soon as I click on 'fly now', the whole programme just unloads, and I have to reload it to do anything else. I can create flights, and fly the aircraft, including simviation add-ons. It's just the 'select a flight' feature that crashes the programme. Any ideas, please?

You mean the predetermined flights, the ones that come with FS9 under "select a flight"? :-?

Does it happen with all of them or only some? Did you perhaps delete one or more default planes?

It's not that we're ignoring you, we just don't have a clue  :-[

Well I don't anyway...

Yes, it's the predetermined flights that cause the whole thing to drop out. I have not tried every one of them; it gets a bit tedious having to restart FS 2004 each time. Also, I have not deleted any of the original aircraft that come with FS 2004.
I have Win XP sp2, 1Gb ram, AMD Athlon XP 3200+ 2.21 Ghz, Nvidia Geforce FX 5200.
I don't know if that helps. I seem to attract problems that nobody else has ever met!

I'd try a flight with EACH of the aircraft....ie..one for the DC3, one for the Cessna,,,etc,,

It sounds like maybe one of your add-ons have overwritten maybe a gauge file, or something along those lines. check the folder with your flights in them. Maybe it's been deleted or modified. Just a thought.
