I've been flying AH on and off for a few years, using three different PCs. I've never had any problems to speak of, but with my new rig, I can't get off the ground (literally).
The pertinent parts of my system:
AMDX2 4800+
A8N32-SLI motherboard (nForce 4)
eVGA 7800GTX 256 MB (two, in SLI configuration)
2GB PC 3500 RAM
350 GB 3BG/sec SATA hard drive
Windows XP Pro
CH Control Manager 4.0
CH Fighterstick/Pro Throttle/Pro Pedals
When I get to the point of seeing the clipboard, the "left" page rotates about its upper right-hand corner, almost like a propeller. There is nothing I can do to stop this, so it is impossible to pick a plane from the hangar, set convergence, etc. If I just click fly with whatever plane is selected, I immediately get a "Don't move your controls so rapidly" message and a crash. The cockpit display is up for just about long enough for me to recognize what it is (i.e., a small fraction of a second) before I'm back in the tower (with the propeller clipboard).
My guess is that the issue has to do either with the dual-core processor or with the SLI configuration. (The system is new, but I have tested it with a number of other games.)
Anyone have any thoughts? I haven't spent much time playing around trying to figure it out, but I thought I'd post here to see if anyone has had a similar experience.
Thanks,
JNOV
