boot to desktop

[jcy19]

hello  i need help regarding getting booted directly to desktop. it has been hapining at least once or twice a day for me. its kind of agrevating to fly for 20min to get to a fight just to get booted when i get there.  is anyone else having this problem?  it has been going on after 1.03, only happened 2 or 3 times before this update.

jcy19, do you get booted just as you start the fight? Or right after you fire your guns?
That's one of the symptoms I've been experiencing. Once in a while, I can get past the dump to desktop when pressing the "fly" button, and everything will be fine until I find a con and start a fight. As soon as I get close to the con, or touch my guns..*POOF*

Not sure what you guys are running for systems but if you are running 3dfx video cards often times that happens when you don't have your desktop and Aces High set to the same resolution.

A new set of drivers fixed that for me. Also I started using DX7.0a and that fixed a lot of things.

I'm having variation on this problem. When I get close to con, I get no fire -- no tracers, no sound or at best - get very sporadic tracers/sound with multiple trigger pulls. Have latest drivers and DX 7.0a -- have done nothing to my system before  this started. Everything is fine til about 1.0K away from con. Everything is fine when (if) I get beyond 1K distance. I've been seeing a bit more lag than usual, and once or twice, a noticeable stop in action -- but normally, under these conditions, all other stick functions, maneuvering, etc. -- work fine. Tried full reinstall - no success. Been happening since aproximately same time new Tour began.

the only consistant thing i see with my prob is  when i fly for awhile in auto, then when i touch the stick it goes to desktop. other than that i dont really see a patern, just does it

I'm not having this problem so I can't really offer much help other than to say you should get DX7a and the newest video and sound card drivers.

If that doesn't work, try reinstalling AH.

Good luck.

Not getting the boot problem here but I have noticed that with the RW intigration I'm getting a fair number of sound problems.

Example, Fireing MG in turret tracking a plane the sound fades to nothing. Sound may come back as I recenter the turret, may not.

Hope this helps
