SYMPTOMS
========
When you install one of the Microsoft Flight Simulator programs listed at the
beginning of this article, you may receive an error message similar to the
following:
FLTSIM98 caused an invalid page fault in module KERNEL32.DLL
CAUSE
=====
This behavior can occur if a DFI SC-211 sound card (based on the ESS 1868
chipset) is installed in your computer.
MORE INFORMATION
================
To work around this issue, disable the sound card in Device Manager and run
Flight Simulator without sound. To do this:
1. Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
2. Double-click System.
3. Click the Device Manager tab.
4. Click the PLUS SIGN (+) next to "Sound, video, and game controllers" to
expand the branch.
5. Click the DFI SC-211 sound card, and then click Properties.
6. On the General tab, click to clear the Original Configuration (Current) check
box, or click to select the "Disable in this hardware profile" check box.
7. Click OK until you return to Control Panel, and then close Control Panel.
8. Restart the computer.
NOTE: After you finish flying in Flight Simulator, restore sound for programs
that do not use DirectSound. To do this, repeat these steps to re-enable the DFI
SC-211 sound card.
