      I was having problem with BMS freezing up so I decided to delete BMS and reload. When I did that I get this error

      “The registry entry points to a folder that does not contain a valid Falcon BMS 4.32 install. Please restore the missing files and try again or remove the registry entry (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Benchmark Sims\Falcon BMS 4.32) to be able to install the product again. Path: C:\Falcon BMS 4.32”

      What do I need to do?

            Well it did not work. Started doing it again. It does not matter what I am doing campaign, TE or instant action Falcon freezes when I exit a mission. It sticks on the “Leaving Aircraft …. Standby” screen. I am not running FRAPS or recording ACMI. I deleted all my ACMI tapes, any suggestions??

              Well I think I figure out the issue here. After extensive research in Forums it seems that this has happen to many people. I did two things and now it is working. I am not sure which one was the fix but here it goes; The problem has something to do with TACVIEW. The first corrective action I took was to go into TACVIEW and found an ACMI file for Falcon in there,. It was a long one and I deleted it. I am still unclear where the file was located because I went into Falcon BMS ACMI file and deleted all associated ACMI files. The next thing I did was disassociated TACVIEW files with Falcon files. When I went into Falcon it has been running like a champ. Thanks to all who helped with this problem. It is the reason Falcon is such a success. Cheers from South Dakota!
