Renea3xx 0 Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Well, as the topic says... I downloaded the A318/319 update today and the ECAM was black. So i downloaded the hotfix which was released today and ticked the "force software rendering". ECAM still black. So i switched the software rendering off. ECAM black. After several reboots and installing the hotfix again and again and trying out different combinations in the Configurator... ECAM black. I run FSX on Windows Vista - PLEASE HELP!

Renea3xx 0 Posted October 4, 2014 Author Share Posted October 4, 2014 Did you check the brightness is up of the ECAM display? Yes I did. First thing I tried actually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonas Kuster 1 Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Then try with the old ECAM dll, I hope you made a backup before the hotfix as written in the installation guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lima india 0 Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Yet I have no problem with airbus x extented it works great. I think the problem must come from the manufacturer aerosoft or may not be compatible with Windows 8? That's 4 days I assai I find the problem it starts exhausting.

Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted October 4, 2014 Aerosoft Share Posted October 4, 2014 The software is fully compatible with Windows 8. I do not agree with you that the software is faulty. Clearly it works with many thousands of other users. There has to be something on your system. That's always very hard for us to debug.

Renea3xx 0 Posted October 4, 2014 Author Share Posted October 4, 2014 Hi Mathijs, after a day of installing (instead of flying) I give up. I tried everything. OS updates, runtime updates, re-installing, old dlls, new dlls, hardware rendering, software rendering... NOTHING. Can't say how disappointed I am. 20 Euros well spent...

This looks like your computer is a bit messed-up. You should further try with a clean cfg or a total new FSX installation. Even a total new installation with a current OS (7, 8) might be an option as Windows Vista is not known as the best Windows, even if it is supported.

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted October 5, 2014 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted October 5, 2014 Just checked the HF 1.02 and also can not reproduce it. @Renea3xx: - Make sure that your Vista is up to date - latest MS .NET installed? - latest MS C++ libraries (2005, 2008 and 2010) installed and up to date?

Thanks for your help. I did this yesterday. Everything is up to date. This looks like your computer is a bit messed-up. You should further try with a clean cfg or a total new FSX installation. Even a total new installation with a current OS (7, 8) might be an option as Windows Vista is not known as the best Windows, even if it is supported. Well, everything else (other add-ons) works, a new installation of FSX or even the OS seems like too much effort for "just" the A319... This will be my last resort. Thanks for your help guys so far. I am starting to think it is a stupid little bug no one even thinks of... like a switch to turn on the ECAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
