FS9 on Vista

Worked a treat, thanks mate!:D

Hiya 330

If you get to the point where you have those colours you need to look at the bottom of the window and it’ll say “Open classic appearance properties for more colour options”

Click this and you’ll get a list.

I’m not sure you’ll see a “Windows Vista Aero” option, but whatever it is click “windows vista basic”

Hope this helps

Hi Deano

I’m also getting the same problem as Rob, but a little problem. When I go into color and appearance, how do I select the Vista theme? It just comes up with random colors and if I want it to be transparent.

Thanks

Deano thank you so Much it works 😀

ive been searching forums for ages trying to find out how!!!

Really really Appreciate it Mate

Take care

Rob go to your desktop

Right Click
Personalize
Windows Colour & Appearance
Ensure Windows Vista Basic is selected and not Windows Aero.

This “should” sort your problem

Rob I may have, I need to go home first though as that’s where my Vista PC is. (I’m at my parents)

Deano i have vista 32 Bit

Got any suggestions?

Thanks Rob

Anyone had any experience with B17 Mighty Eighth on Windows 7 64bit? It’s supposed to be compatible, but…………..:(

Rob have you got Vista 64 bit?

Yes i also run FS9 on Vista However i cant play it in Window mode as when i look to the left it freezes so i play in full mode but still works peachy!

FS9 works perfectly in Vista, I have been running it on Vista 64bit for over a year with no issues.

It’s 32bit. Just been reading of other peoples experiences of FS9 on Vista, and it’s giving me second thoughts. FSX is out of the question, really is too slow

Yes it will, have you got Vista 64bit or 32bit?
