Hey Guys I just bought all 3 packs for the C-130 and installed them all, but when I go to click on the plane it come up with the guage acceptence screen and I click yes but once the 2nd  little screen pops up the game crashes..Don't know what is going on. Ive uninstalled and reinstalled the planes and same thing happens. If I cant get this fixed I want a refund. 80 some dollars is a lot to pay for something not working right. This is the first payware I've bought that has given me trouble. I have about 400 planes in my game and none make my game crash please help. thanks

Hi,
I experienced almost same problem. Seems to be known bug.
See CS Knowledge Base  (Search for KB# 674):

Are CS upgrades free or do they charge for them?

Hey,

as far as I know, Captain sim provides the service packs,
if they're ready, for free to existing users of that particular product...

After many months of consideration I finally purchased CS-C130 x-perience Pro Pak. Loading it into MSFSX was completely effortless. However, after starting MSFSX and selecting CS-C130 MSFSX crashes and I am back to Windows Vista desktop, such magic. I have removed and installed CS-C130 x-perience several times, but with the same results as described above. I have in the past purchased several other aircraft for MSFSX and have been quite satisfied as they worked as advertised right out of the box. I may not be the smartest carrot in the cabbage patch but if this problem or anything similiar was known or discovered then this is a blatant issue with CS-C130 x-p. How did it get through the beta testing process without being discovered? The logical thing to do would be to fix it before you sell it. Not sell it then attempt to fix it. Is there a service pack update being addressed to solve this or any discovered issues? This month, this summer, this fall, next year? I did not experience any problems when I purchased CS-C130 for FS2004. In the intrim I am left with a superbly designed aircraft that is sitting in my hanger completly usless for $86.90. I am hoping for a reply and a solution.

Thanks for the info. Tried it, still stuck in the hanger with the props spinning. No joy.

Hi all. I have bought c-130 Xperience, but since now the only thing I have experienced is a crash to desktop everytime I try to fly one the c-130s as Marine1.

I have tried unistalling and installing again both the game and the addon, upgrading the drivers of video and sound cards, deleting the file in the gauges folder wothout succes.

Can someone help me ?

I downloaded C130 X and attempted to load the aircraft in FSX as soon as I selected any variant of the aircraft my system kept crashing to the dreaded blue screen before restarting. The fix in the end is simple remove the following file"c130.sound.GAU" from the gauges file of FSX and the game runs perfectly!
