Combat Flight Simulator 3 crashes after 2 minutes... y at - it a patch or whatever it is for Vista?

I recently bought a copy of Combat Flight Simulator 3, and everything installed OK.  It starts without any problems, you start to play and less than two minutes, it stops working.  I tried to play again and again and the same thing.

    Hi Gary,.

    If I understand correctly you are faced with the question with the Combat Flight Simulator 3 after installing a recent security update. You need to reinstall the game after you install the security update. I would say to contact Combat Flight Simulator 3 support for assistance.

  • Combat Flight Simulator won't save is no longer a new campaign

    I tried to launch a new campaign in 3 bag after beating the HUN. I created a new American character and flew the 1st mission. Then I dutifully saved the campaign according to the instructions of the obvious. After leaving the game, I tried to continue with the new character. But NO! Quietly, the bloody game had refused to register this new character. He only would allow me to use characters that I had already beaten before Nazis! At gibts? Deutsch for "what happened?" I have already unloaded the game and reloaded it's new. Thanks for ANY help.

    If the game is not compatible with windows 7, as suggested by compatibility diagnosis then the only remaining option is to switch to other versions of Combat Flight Simulator, which is compatible with Windows 7.
