FS2002 Not Responding

Postby chief1995 » Wed Apr 07, 2004 5:30 pm

I flew yesterday no problems everything was fine. I shut down Fs as usual.  Today when I try to open FS, it just won't open. The hour glass just keeps churning.
Short of reinstalling, what can I do to trouble-shoot this problem?

Thanks to all!

Hmm odd, I think it may be a re-install job then Chief, sorry. Your system specs seem well up to the job :(

You might be able to to do a restore back to when it was working? ??? If you are unsure on how to do this this click on help and look for restore it will tell you how. I have done this in the past and now make it a habbit of creating a restore point before I put on any new software just in case ::)

Chief he means a system restore. You'll find this in your System Tools ;)

Thanks Guys,
All your advice was great!
I had forgotten I had deleted some files in FS, as soon as I restored them I am flying again!
I had taken a stupid pill.
Again thanks!

Regards,

Chief
