??Go read this thread: Squad Numbering System, choose a free number from the list, and reply to the thread, kindly requesting if you can use that number... wait for confirmation, and you're a number!

What version?
It depends...
Mostly 4.09b1m, with the AAA mod set.
But, make sure you have the switcher operational, as there's always a chance you want to run 4.08m without mods ...
(The switcher is the file named 'Il2VersionSwitcher.exe', and it's in your IL2 folder, if you've succesfully installed the AAA mod set that is)
Once you're on TS at the right time, you'll find out what version the dogz will be running ... just ask ...

It really is true...I think all RAM will run at the speed of the slowest stick but don't quote me on that.

Lol!

Use the plane stick to build your own pedals with...
Here's a design idea, very basic, simple, and it works!
(I used this Pre-IL2, for Flying Corps...)
(Edit: Unfortunately, this specific one does no longer exist...)

Try starting Windows in Safe mode.
(After the Bios screen has gone, press F8 repeatedly, a start menu should appear, from which you can choose 'Safe mode'. Note: you won't have Internet access in that mode...)
But, you'd first need to get some cleaners downloaded from a different pc, and put it on a CD (Spybot Search and Destroy, and if you can identify the virus, a manual cleaning procedure...)
Good Luck...

This was fun, thanks again Painless, and the others gathered there and then, just now ...

Kudos to Brando...
He managed to HOST...

But B had some great missions to share, so it was Big Fun after all....
Thanks Brando!

One Q: Your windows desktop resolution is 1280x1024, and your in game resolution is 1280x960. Why is that?
Set in game resolution to 1280x1024, and retry...

The DxDiag Report looks fine to me, though I must state I'm no too familiar with the Vista ones...
(Your Conf.ini I could not retrieve from the vault, it seems to be missing.)
However, the way the drop happens, sounds to me like some other (not IL2 related) process has started running in the background.
Maybe some Vista timed one. Or a Virusscanner update. Or defrag. Or Vista maintenance stuff...
So, next time this drop occurs, alt-tab out of IL2, start the task manager, and check if there's a process eating CPU cycles...

I am also unable to connect to anything in 4.08m Vanilla install without the mods added.
This is find so very weird... combined with the initial after-re-format-issue of not being able to connect to some servers, yet able to connect to others.
Can we have a copy of the contents your conf.ini in here please?
If that's normal, me thinks we need to go take a look at your router/dsl connection...
Very weird stuff...
Edit: Not being able to connect, does that mean getting a Time Out when connecting?

They come in other colors too...

I'm not sure this is caused by them sound devices.
I regularly use a USB headset with IL2, on full acceleration, while my xfi is still active.
No issues there.
I've been googling a bit on the kmixer.sys, and there's a lot that can cause this.
One guy fixed it (after a year and a half of trying) by getting a new Mobo...
I remember the story of a friend of mine, had bought a pc (A small one, a Cube PC), BSOD's from the start. He tried just about everything (including some hardware swaps) but in the end the issue was caused by a faulty SATA cable... Now that's easy enough to try and fix, isn't it?

Please note that these sensitivity settings are not only depending on aircraft type, but maybe even more so on the hardware one uses.
Some (most?) Saitek users really like 100's all across for Roll and Pitch...
I'm currently using these, for my Guillemot FFB stick:
aileron=0 27 38 52 63 69 75 83 88 93 100 0
elevator=0 40 46 52 58 64 70 76 82 88 94 0
With these I was able to dive a P51 (or maybe it was Mustang MkIII?) to 860kph, and pull out successfully

The limit of 4 goes for Game Controllers... the ones visible via Control Panel, Game Controllers.
So, you can add as many other devices as you like.

Vista does not support DX hardware acceleration the way XP did... (for Creative cards anyways)
Too bad. I think. Oh well...

"You need to assign a key to 'Toggle level Autopilot'.
Once used it will change the behaviour of autopilot switching:
- default is 'Switch Autopilot on' when you leave a position in a bomber.
- default is 'Switch Autopilot off' when you enter a position in a bomber.
Once you've used the key, the automatic switching is off, and you will need to switch the Autopilot off yourself when you enter the bombardier position, and (which is more relevant to remember) switch it on when you leave a gunner position.
Hope this makes sense!
Have Fun!"

Now that's a cool solution!
(Yet, I'm sitll curious what caused this... ah well, now we'll probably never know!
) -
Would like to see the contents of his conf.ini file.
Can you somehow get it from him, and post it here?
Then again, not sure if I really understand the issue:
- "when he makes a roll instead of hes horizon, hes cockpit is rolling."
Okay, this is what happens when in external view: Aircraft rolls, Horizon stays horizontal. That's normal.
When in cockpit, it should not happen. Correct would be: Aircraft rolls, wings stay horizontal, horizon rolls.
- "so if he fly's upside down hes cockpit is up!?"
When in external view, this is not normal.
When in cockpit view this is correct.
So, I find this a bit contradictory... or is it just me?
PC boots to login screen, but
in Help!!

I've had this before...
For ease of re-install, I had made a 'copy' of a full working XP installation, meaning: C:\Documents and Settings, C:\Program files and C:\Windows folders all copied one-on-one to a DVD.
(On a dual boot system, booting from a different partition.)
Now some time ago (I suspect this was pre-SP3) I know I could just empty the C-drive (apart from the boot-stuff that is) and copy the DVD contents back to C:\ and then boot with that 'restored' version of XP. And successfully logon and work with it.
But, after I got SP3, and had made a similar backup, this trick did not work any longer. Exactly the same thing: logon window, you login successfully, get to desktop, then it just says 'Logging off' and voila, there's the login screen. Even with Administrator, even in safe mode...
I do not know why, and I could not fix it. And I've tried lots of stuff... for several days... In the end, I just re-installed from CD.
Me thinks an SP3 feature... somehow the installation thinks it's corrupted. Enhancement in security by MS?
