Any help will be great i have just done a fresh install... Please help.

Hi Mike
Thank you for your Kind words and help BUT this i have already done and i have re-downloaded just incase of error in file. This matter still sticks with me this s the only aircraft you have that dont work for me.

The New 777 is working fine and looks great So im stuck.

Hello I have used the KB 685 and done all that also still no luck it realy has me this one. Every way i try i have no wheels just a floating 707.

I have now deep cleaned the Reg files and re-booted the Pc still no wheels Umm Can anyone help with this problem it seems in stuck...

Am i the only one with this problem too?

Andy:

No wheels showing was a problem I had when I added the cargo and AWACs expansion packs to my original installation without first updating the base installation to version 1.3 - it was very frustrating until I figured out the fix

If you installed the original 707 release base models when they first came out some time ago and then recently added the expansion packs you might need to first upgrade your original install to 1.3 then install your cargo and other expansions.

You can find the 1.3 service pack under "Updates" on the 707 product page - if you just recently bought the whole package than 1.3 is probably already incorporated and this may not be the answer but it's worth a try

That solved the no wheels prob for me

Hope this helps - good luck!

Hi Andy.

I'm really happy you got it fixed (even though you won't tell us how ).

Happy flying.

Hi,
Guys My B707 with no landing gears, even the engine blades doesn't rotate when starting the engine only smoke.
whats the problem???!!
why does this happen???


Abdulla

yes it does and I had fsx acceleration installed, I had the base pack and all the expansion packs installed.

thank you

its CS707 1.3, I reinstall it by newer installer but the same happening!

I did all the instruction:
1-uninstall base and exp packs
2-remove registry entries
3-disabled "UAC" cause I use Vista
4-re-install them

but still the same problem
what next?

note:I had 757 and C-130 installed with no problems, so why 707?!

I rarely turn UAC off (Win7) and have not had any problems with installing the 707 Base Pack and Expansion Models, as long as I use "run as administrator". But I don't know if there are differences between the two with regards to the UAC.

Mark

Can you confirm this setting?
Do you have "advanced animations" enabled in the FSX options (graphics tab)?

And you are running FSX SP2 or Acceleration, right?

Abdulla, I think this sounds like a protection thingy to me.
Please do that installation again  , all sorts of possible system protection set to off, UAC off, admin account, right click "run as admin" and fingers crossed.

It really sounds like the downloaded installation file, csx701_1300.exe, has not been activated properly.
Did you try KB#685 and in do so, removed the entry from the windows registry? So that the file needs to be re-activated online when you run it.

It is all I can really think of for why this is happening to you.

Hi Abdulla.

Have as look in the registry and see if you can see the following information:

(Default)
data
RegCode
RegName
support
tpl
version

If it is there, it must be activated. Make sure that the information after    RegName    REG_SZ    is your order number and that it is correct (it must match your order number from where you bought it). Remember that the location in the registry of Windows 64bit is different to Windows 32bit (see image).

I'am going to install it again with no registry entries & will see, if the problem still there I think that's mean that the installer file from CS is the problem.


Abdulla

OK. Did you download a new installer at any time and try to install it from the new one? If not, download the 707-300 Base Pack installer again and reinstall from the new one. See if that fixes the problem.

To get a new installer: Check-in to Your Profile > Select Product > Extended Download Service > Get New Links.

Mark

if there is no fix for the problem!
maybe I going to uninstall it for good from my current PC and will install it on the new one soon & will see.

Abdulla

What did Andy do to solve it?, because I had the same problem.

In this post here: http://www.captainsim.org/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1305810025/11#11, he explains what happened. I'm not sure what he means "split code", but it sounds to me like that the activation code was wrong.

Submit a ticket regarding your problem AND mention this Topic! That way Support can look at everything that has been done in an attempt to resolve this problem. Hopefully it will be sorted out real soon for you.

Mark

I don't think there actually is a fix to this problem. The simple solution I've found is to just re-load the aircraft.
