      Hello, after downloading and installing BMS I tried to run it first on the x64 version and it closed right after launching (black screen and a short sound from the menu music before closing)

      I tried both the x86 and x64 .exe files, I also tried reinstalling on another folder. I have no error windows and the logs I have are these:

      ErrorsInClassTable

      This file is restarted each session

        I had a previous installation of BMS 4.32 and it worked fine.
        Also I forgot system specs:

        Windows 7 64 bit
        8GB RAM
        FX-6100
        Radeon 7850 2GB
        And I’m using a Logitech Attack 3 as joystick.

          I am having similar issues. I am running Windows 8.1 pro. Mine starts up into the menu screen. When I try starting a training campaign, it goes to the loading screen and all 5 bars light up at the bottom. That is when it crashes back to the desktop. I actually got to fly it by clicking on instant action, but when I escaped it crashed to desktop again. My issue could possibly be that I do not have enough memory. This PC only has about 2gb of ram. When I was flying, my memory was running at around 99%, so it was maxed out. I will try installing more memory and see if this helps

            Sag, you need a minimum of 4gb and we recommend 8gb. It makes all the difference

              I think, I have a similar problem. I tried start the program first, but it isn’t run after the launch . I get a black screen, but no error message ,just a windows warning sound in the background, and the device control menu show to the program is stopped run.
              once I got a message to there also run another Falcon on the background, but I started it only once.
              I start 64 bit version on win 7 64 bit.

              Registry cleaning may it help?
              I remove the former falcon version

                Sanguchito those Errors are normal. They are not the issue.

                Can you confirm you have unticked ‘Play Intro Movie on Start Up’ (Configuration > General folder), or installed a 64-bit version of ffdshow (so you can play the video)?

                  I will try by unticking that option, also I didn’t tried to install that thing which I don’t think it’s the issue since it also crashes on 32 bit

                  EDIT: It works! Thank you Darkman!
