Upgraded to 1.81 and Can't Fly!

Whenever I launch AH, I get the new white window and the illegal operation message.  It follows;

ACESHIGH caused an invalid page fault in

PII450 128M RIVA TNT2 SB64, WIN98
Been flying all previous versions successfully.

Rebooted numerous times.

I've D/L'd and installed DX8.0A, removed my video.cfg and voice.cfg files from htc\aces high\settings.

I'm having DT's, please any help!

Are u running AH from the original shortcut?  NOT the dxbeta one?
Did u try complete uninstal of AH and then fresh instal?
(save your settings folder)

Skurj,

Never ran the DXBETA thingy so I'm running from the shortcut that points at aceshigh.exe.

Did the full uninstall, d/l'd the 22M full product, installed, rebooted and tried again.  

Same results.

Next!

FYI Fellow Pilots,

Could not launch AH from my normal shortcut.  Used Explorer to launch the exe and everything worked.  After that, the shortcut worked too.

Can't say what fixed it but can say the re-install did not.
