I dont have Vista but I knwo that with Vista user have many problems having the game in program files , I think because of permissions or something. Even in XP I took my install out of program files. Make a copy of 4.101 elsewhere, or on another drive, it does not need to be in program files. I dont know if that will solve this problem, but it will certainly help with IL2 in future.

Arkbird: did you manage to launch it WITHOUT the 4gb option succesfully? That option is well explained and warned about in the guide.

Also, move your IL2 out of program files.

also, just further about locating il2 in you program files folder, as advised here https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,19.0.html

it is not only advised that you copy your game folder to another location, but that after copying it, making backup copies of it, and then going ahead an actualy UNINSTALLING the "official" install in your program files folder, using the uninstaller on the install disk. This will get rid of some of the Malware installed on your PC by UBI when you installed IL2.

After that, use the no-disk exe https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,1117.0.html to start any stock game copy. Or the selector that comes with this upgrade.

With or without 4GB option it wouldn't start. Moving IL-2 now.

So can i install 3.0 (now 3.1) over the old 2.72?

Cirx, and all others thank you. This is a freakin brilliant expansion. Im really floored by this update.

I have yet to test it, but IL-2 starts. But, the game's controls are reset to defaults.

i have windows vista and my game is installed at Program Files.
my system is amd athlon x2 dual core ql-65 2,1 Ghz with 1,7 GB Ram

running the same set up on my second computer, I deleted my program files version, created a new folder in the hard drive i wanted to install the game on, chose said folder for the install directory and installed vanilla copy of il-2. patched up tp 4.101, installed modact 3 per directions exactly, then upgraged to modact 3.01 per directions excatly. You may not want to do all that work, but if all else fails try that! I am running vista as well on my crap computer.

you guys must not INSTALL il2 in another place. you must COPY your whole IL2 game folder to elsewhere, then UNINSTALL the one in programfiles. Re-installing elsewhere with the disk just adds back all the spyware and malware from UBI into your registry that you want to get rid of, although having it outside program files does help a bit in from the windows side of things.

by copying it you also should not loose your custom settings.
