Hi

Just got my CJR 200 as a xmas present from my wife

have been allday trying t get it to run

i have a win7 64bit op system, and to my horror it CD does not support 64bit

althou have just found out on this forum there is an update for 64bit and its downloading at the moment

tells me it wil take 1 hour or more ???

so i dragged out my old 32bit Vista system and installed it there

it installed and runs but only if i shut down all the options to a min

but have runn into a problem already

started cold&dark

batt on

external apu connected

but only the center glass panels are lit up

and according to the istructions they should all be up and running ???

shut down and restarted this time having selected start with engines running

its just the same central displays are runnng but not the rest

am realy stuck now ,, thats allday and not even got the engines runnin yet

any help around for this

Rgds

Hello Mike-G,

for Vista i cannot say something. I don't have installed it here.

But it is a good idea to update all drivers (Grafik is important).

Your Java shall be actual and you C++ Runtimes too.

http://java.com/en/

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13523

But the best way is to run the CRJ-200 in 64bit Modus of X-Plane 10 under Win 7 or 8/8.1 (64bit).

Therefore you shall update the CRJ to version 1.53.

And be sure to activate the CRJ-200. The activation only works in 32bit mode of X-Plane 10.

X-Plane 10 shall be updated to version 10.22 or 10.25.

hi

thanks for the quick reply

the 64bit upgrade has been downloaded and installed after deleting the old install

i fired it up and it seemed to work now althou i was late so never whent anyfurther thanchecking

the buttons now activate and thescreens come alive

will try again tomirrow

as for the Vista 32bit system it had a complete factory reset and updated with microsoft update [took all day]

also graphics card drivers were updated

but at the moment it is just the same

using the demo flight that comes in the box

turn on batt switch / activate external power / put it online

that all works but the glass panels stay off

can even go through the rest of the proceedures and even get it in the air
but no nave panels

anyway like you say 64bit is the best option and with a little luck that is now working

so thanks again

Hi again

well have it working both 32bit/64bit

but only using the download from the site

the instalation from the CD does not work in either modes

I find this rather strange as it was bought only 3 weeks ago and the update has been around for some time

can not understand how people expect loyalty when shipping outdate software known to have problems

some people would not have the experience or knowhow to go through this update procedure

and would therefore not only refuse to buy from the publishers again but also from the product producer (jRollons)

and even worse they will recount their problems and frustrations to their friends so the loss of sales will esculate along this route

i know that at the moment i would not buy from this source again ( mind you i did not buy this one, my wife did for xmas cos she see me looking at the addsin the mag several times)

customers have the right to expect it to work straight out of the box

I might add that i still have problems with the plane

but at the moment not sure if its the plane/xplane/or my system so i reserve any comments here at the moment
