<description><![CDATA[Hello there,

I guess this game wasn't meant for me even though I was really interested in trying it.  It's not usually my cup of tea but for some reason lately, I've wanted to try real Aviation Sims...

If anyone is interested in sharing the solution to my problems, even though it's too late for this game, it would still be worth it just in case it happens again.  If so at least Ill know what to do.  It's really strange that this small black screen popped up and that the game didn't work.  It's never happened before, not with this top notch laptop, never had any issues. Go figure!(Post #32 -#34).

I tried and tried everything suggested plus other things I could think of before posting.  Even continued to try afterwards but nothing worked:-(

Thank you in advance to whomever will take the time to help me with this issue.  I can assure you that it will be very much appreciated and that I'm grateful for any advice you will give me.

Have a great week everyone and God Bless you all :-)

P.S.  See you in March!!!

Todays giveaway and two oothers in the series are  freely available 24/7 from  FreeGamePick.  I stopped referencing them some time ago becasue tey had   changed their practice to forcing you to install toolbars etc, but that has changed.  you can now  uncheck the boxes and get a clean game.  Helic is called  Helicopter Wars (sometimes these free sites change the name of the game). The other two are called Sky Battle and Sky Battle: WWII.  you'll also find some other excellent   arcade flying games such as Aerial Fire and Air Shark I & II plus Forbidden Galaxy I & II.   Just google FreeGamePick then  click on the Flying link to find all of the games  :)

Here you go

<description><![CDATA[After sitting here playing the game, here is my review of it..

It installed and runs fine under Windows XP and Windows 7.  Graphic quality is excellent, Game play is easy.

The only issue that I would like to point out for me is that the controls for the helicopter are a bit over responsive, but I have compensated for that in the game.

Got past the training with ease and the first mission seemed hard at first, but once I got the full hang of it, the game went smooth.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Hello everyone,

I hope it's not too late to post it's 8:00 P.M. my time. I downloaded and installed today's game on laptop Win7 x64 AMD Dual Core.  But, when I try to open it, a small black screen (not the entire screen) pops up for 2-3 seconds???

I have tried all the suggested "fixes", all compatibility possibilities, updated drivers, even uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail. I have DirectX 11 so that's not the problem either.  I really don't know what else to do since this is the first time it's ever happened.

If anyone has a suggestion for me so I can fix this problem, it would be greatly appreciated. 

Have a great day everyone!!!  Well, since it's late in the day...Have a great week everyone!!!

Thanks GGOTD &amp; Whiterabbit :-)

Does the laptop  fulfil all  requiremnts? and   does  your graphic card support  DX 11]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Just thought it was interesting to point out that the picture associated with the lowest level difficulty was a flight attendant, the second level was someone that might pass as an ace pilot, and the hardest difficulty, titled "Hardcore," had a picture of a guy that looks like he's a handlebar mustache away from shooting a porn. Very funny :p]]></description>

Hello Brian, please read   the comments  above, this has been discussed and ome  possible fixes mentioned.  Treat, whose posted  a few posta  above you   found that reducing the quality  by 50% stopped the crashes and memory access viloation.  There are many reasons why you get this message some of which i've posted in answer to other  users comemnts.  It could also be a software issue such as  an old driver or Direct x, your graphics card may not support the game etc.  Please let me know if any of the suggestions   work for you.  Thank yu.

Regards
