If you are using Vista or Windows 7, then you need to:

1) Run the Weapon for FSX installer (csw001_1000.exe) as an administrator (right click and select Run as administrator) to install it correctly.
2) You need to run the (Weapon) Loader as an administrator or it doesn't add it to the aircraft properly.
3) You then need to run FSX as an administrator so weapon works properly.

For numbers 1) & 2), Right click on the Loader (same for fsx.exe), select properties, select the Compatibility tab and place a tick in the box beside "Run this program as an administrator" (under Privilege Level). This is especially true if FSX is installed in C:\Program Files or C:\Program File (x86) because those operating systems are very protective of everything installed in there and doesn't like you making changes in there! This is a good thing, but it can be a real pain in the butt as well. Permanently running them as administrators, gives them the right to make the changes needed.

Awesome!

Those running Vista or Windows 7 with FSX installed in its default location (C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86)) should take note of what you just said. Wink

It all depends on whether you have a sound issue or not. As far as I know, version 1.1 only fixes a problem with the sound, nothing else.

So if you provide more information on your problems, we can try and help you if we can.

What you need to do is to check-in to Your Profile > Select Product > Customer Support > Search KB or Submit New Ticket. Create a Ticket, fill in all the information and say that you are having sound issues with Weapon for FSX. They should provide you with a way to get v1.1.
