Default Re Install Help

Ohh Help Great FS9 Gru's:
I uninstalled FS 2004 and deleated all pertanate files, went to re install
FS 2004 after all discs were loaded, and I attempt to run I get this message

"Aircraft initialization Failure
Piper PA-28-181 Archer
Dream Fleet -1"

When I close this message the game shuts down and will not run. I did have
the Flight One Archer Downloaded but I have deleated all the files for this
aircraft.

Any suggestions I'm a little lost ??

I have only seen that error message after I have installed a plane with the
sim still running (not recommended practice lol) and then went to fly that
particular plane
I think it might be cause you removed FS2004 and didnt uninstall the Archer
first (I did the same with 2k2,and still have a few things hanging around
that I have to get rid of) .My suggestion would be to re install the archer
..If it still causes strife,then uninstall the archer (not just delete the
files).I've noticed that most of the payware planes installations are quite
involved,putting files such as textomatics in strange locations.
I will plug Regvac again,I reckon its a great little piece of freeware
that does a good job for nix.It might not help in this case,but it won't
hurt either

>Ohh Help Great FS9 Gru's:

Denis,

Did you really delete all associated files? In the "My Documents"
folder as well as in "Documents and Settings"?

Uninstall does not remove files and folders that were created by the user
i.e. if you added a plane to the aircraft folder or scenery to the addon
scenery folder. The uninstall does not remove the Flight Simulator Files
folder in My Documents. Uninstall does not remove registray entry's.

delete fs9 files. some are still there after running the uninstall program.

Thanks Gang: I missed a file in "My Documents" Although I did a search for
all related files pertaining to the Flight ONe Archer, there must have been
something in that last file

Thanks to all


Denis
