and thank you very much for trying to help me out on getting started and devoting your time. I played Aces High two years ago for I think about 3-4 months and then stopped playing for awhile due to school. I want top get started again.

do you have a good download of the game ?? it may have gotten corrupted .

also you need Direct X 9.x .. and the 4.12 cat /omega drivers work best on that 9800 card .


you may have someting fubared in windows though ... do any other games /installers work ok ???

It is a bad download.  Usually caused by anti-virus programs.  If you use a download manager, such as "GetRight", then these types of problems usually go away.
