Title: 2.16 with Windows 7 hangs when quitting
Post by: oboe on October 25, 2009, 08:11:50 AM

When selecting "quit" from the initial game clipboard.   Have to kill the program with task manager. 

Have tried re-installing 2.16, and also running it in Win XP SP3 and Vista compatibility modes with same result.   Used 2.15 and Win 7 without a problem...

Thanks for responding, Pyro.

Just tried it and Alt-F4 works like a charm.   Then I double-checked selecting "Quit" from the initial clipboard and it still hangs.

Alt-F4 seems like an acceptable workaround tho.   Any other Windows 7 users having problems?   

After I submit this last batch of P-38L skins I've been working on, I intend to back everything up and try uninstalling anf then re-installing.

I have windows7 ultimate installed and I have not run into this at all. Do you think it could be because of your memory??

Since no one else is experiencing this, I wonder now if it has to do with the drivers for the Logitech G940 control set I recently got - installed the latest version of AH and the new controls at the same time.

This is apparently a problem with the G940.   After some light usage of the G940, the rudder axes and tow brakes started spiking wildly.   So I dug out the old TM stuff, and now I can exit AH without hanging.
