Then this error pops up and I do not know what to do. If anyone knows any ideas, PLEEA[Mod - Happy Thoughts]SEEE help! Here is a pic of what error pop's up. http://i611.photobucket.com/albums/tt20 ... 1271201186 Hi, Graham. While a picture is nice, the text that a user says with the picture is also invaluable. You’d probably be on your way having your problem resolved if you had actually described it in words. In the future, as a suggestion, you might consider starting out by a topic that describes your problem. The popup most likely said something in words. So you could have considered using the words of the popup (or something similar) as your topic title. This would have had a better chance of the topic being caught by someone having a similar issue who might have been able to quickly give you an immediate resolution that worked for them. In conjunction with Harold’s suggestion (posting a link to your image that actually works) write down some of the text of the popup that you get along with some information about your system, with your followup. You might mention things like: OS and patch level Flight Simulator version and patch level Pilot Client and version Third party firewall/antivirus program Sound Card brand and drivers (if you’re having a problem with sound). I can’t tell from your message if you are having a sound problem or the popup has an accompanying sound. By the way, the link you gave us goes to the front page of photobucket. If you preview your message just before you post it you can right click on any link you want to post and test whether it's working or not before you post your message. If the link isn't going to work, you might save time and space by not posting it (the link). -- L. James -- L. D.

Alistair Thomson Posted April 28, 2010 at 09:32 PM Posted April 28, 2010 at 09:32 PM Larry, as I said before, you have the patience of a Saint! While I'm busy s[Mod - lovely stuff]ing myself off the ceiling with the flyswatter which I would use on the OP if he ever got close enough, you're busy sorting out his problem. You carefully didn't mention anything about the previous post he submitted, and the response he got from Harold (which he apparently ignored). Well done. Now, where's that bottle of Laphroaig… Alistair Thomson === Definition: a gentleman is a flying instructor in a Piper Cherokee who can change tanks without getting his face slapped.

I figured it would be easier to just tell him to re-link the photo, allowing me to more easily [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ist by just seeing the error message. Larry's method is much more comprehensive, but I was just making it simple with the [Mod - Happy Thoughts]umption that we'd be able to talk about it within the same time frame as the original post. I'm not trying to come off as rude or blunt, I'm just trying to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think Alistair’s complement of my offered [Mod - Happy Thoughts]istance meant in any way to minimize your valuable input. I might have misunderstood Alistair’s reference, but I thought he was kind of complimenting the whole reply including yours. I thought he was suggesting that I was patient not to bring up the fact that the user had ignored your first suggestion and still doing the same. By the way, many forums would probably scold the user for cross posting between forums. But of course, we at VATSIM have a lot of patience with people who haven’t learnt a lot of forum etiquette. We understand that we are often dealing with doctors, lawyers, pilots, controllers, businessmen and other professions who aren’t computer savvy, but just trying to have some leisure time. My perspective is to introduce a little forum etiquette while offering [Mod - Happy Thoughts]istance at the same time. -- L. James -- L. D.

Alistair Thomson Posted April 28, 2010 at 11:37 PM Posted April 28, 2010 at 11:37 PM I'm not trying to come off as rude or blunt, I'm just trying to help. And I absolutely wasn't trying to suggest otherwise! Just for the record. Forums (fora?) are great places for quick responses, and for exactly the same reason, they are great places for being misunderstood @Larry, I couldn't have said it better myself!

Larry James 901346 Posted May 4, 2010 at 08:27 AM Posted May 4, 2010 at 08:27 AM It shows SP3 Your OS is Windows XP with the patch level being SP3. The other information I asked for in my initial response is important to know also: This current Thread my first reply: viewtopic.php?p=355717#p355717 Since you’re already running the highest Windows XP major patch level you can’t go that route to patch your flawed system. My next suggestion will depend on your responses to the other information about your system… namely the third party firewall/antivirus programs. Know immediately knowing the answer, I would recommend that you uninstall them, especially if you have more than one installed. Then only install one and see if you still have the problem. Again, having had the responses to the questions would have made my next step more direct. -- L. James -- L. D.
