It looks to me, that there's a service taking all your cpu power. Try and get a look in ctrl-alt-delete after you started the sim.

but why just the B1-B, kilotango? That simply dosn't add up in my two or three brain cells .

Unplug your computer from the internet, and turn of every program that the computer can run without (antivirus, firewall, etc.). restart FS9. If it works, turn on things using a trial and error method. If it doesn't work, i would reinstal fs9.

Hi there.
Not sure what you mean by B1-B, but once i downloaded an addon or program. This "piece" changed a dll into a monster in my system32 and made my cpu burn at 100%. I could start nail it down by first look at the processes running, then with a lot of searching on google i found the monster.
Of course, i can't remember what program or dll.

[Kaworu]

I have never experinced that (thank God!). Good point though.

Try to find the dll file. that may well be the answer,

Another thing to try is to go directly into the Fs9 folder Programs/Microsoft/Fs9  then into the 'flights' folder, and double click a DEFAULT flight...( say a Cessna lesson or a 747 cargo flight),.,and if this gets you flying, maybe you can take it from there.
