Hi everyone
I was able to load the FMS software (FMS 2.0 Alpha 2.3) I recieved with my Art-Tech RC heliopter, but when I click on the desktop icon to run the program, I just get the Microsoft error message "the program has encountered a problem and must shut down". The problem details state: App name: fms.exe, Mod name: kernel32.dll. I am using the Art-Tech 4-channel radio and USB adapter cable and running Windows XP service Pack 3 on an older Dell Dimenson 3100 (4 years old?). I have the standard graphics card that came with the computer (I am not sure if it supports 3D graphics, but I was able to run Microsoft Flight Simulator X in the past).
Any suggestions on how to get the program to run? I saw the posts in the forum about the COM port problem and Graphics card problems, but I am not sure if these are my problems. Truthfully, the COM port fix looks to be a bit beyond my computer skills to fix.
I bought the helicopter for my son form Christmas, and we were keen to get some "training" using the FMS flight sim before flying the model, so any help is appreciated.
Thanks RvE
