I was going to try to fly this thing. but I don't think it likes windows 10 cause when I load FSX and the Connie it just crashes the simulator resulting in having to restart. all get is a black screen. no sound nothing. Grrrr :evil:

I've got many hours on the Constellation in FSX with Windows 10. There might be something else going on here...

Hi.
Try running your sim and connie as admin , and set your Antivirus to ignor all things to do with your sim.

A reinstall should normally be a last resort.

You need to do basic troubleshooting first in which case I would first like to ask more about what is happening and how.

Can you please let us know about any recent system changes, how you are loading the flight, have you run any updaters to get updated etc?

I believe you may have recently re-installed the OS so that is a massive thing and outside of sim altogether you'll be wanting to make sure your system is all set and ready to go driver wise etc.

thanks,

Did you post here before replicating?

It could have just been a corrupt flight loading.

thanks,
