"[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif[/img] For those of you running windows xp or maybe one of the others, ... for automatic updates, it may be a good idea to set it to download the updates, but to manual install.... Last night flying PO056 Scel to kmia, about half way, the computer downloaded and installed an update, but it was one of those that need to reboot the computer at that time.....well we all know what happens to your flight when the computer reboots dont we??? Anyway, ill try again later today.. ed mosier 1287"

"[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/angry.gif[/img] yeah, i want happy myself, got the flight up to altidude about 11:30 last night, make sure everything ok and then go to bed,I get up several times anyway and check on it, the first time it was ok, but at 4:30 i check and I got a windows screensaver going.... it had rebooted, check it this mornig and that little message in the lower rite corner notified me that my computer had been updated but it had to do a reboot, so..... well at least the plane wasnt loaded with x boxes this time... it would be hard to explain that away, twice in one month....
