I was flying and stepped on my cord unplugging the connecter at the radio adaptor. I plugged it back in and now Aerofly does not recognize the cord. Windows says that the USB device has malfunctioned. Now What? Any help would be appreciated.

By stepping on the usb cord and tugging off the cord from the Tx adapter, the damage could be within the cord circuitry, or the connectors. Can you tell me what is the error message that you get when you start up AFPD?

Mann, what error message do you get when you startup AFPD? Did you make any changes to your PC before the error occurred? Check if the usb port is in use by another device, or try using another usb port.

My error is exactly the same as Manyh's. AeroFly simply gives you buttons to exit or search.

Mann, I've looked at your tm.log and seems like your interface is bad. Excel, your interface is damaged

Hi Rajul,
I havent recieved my new Nvidia card yet, and am still dealing with the Ati Radeon 9200. Aerofly Pro Delux opens, and says in red.
WARNING, no Open GL graphics driver installed.

But under it, it says it cant find the usb cable and to plug it into a free port.
When I get my new card, is the cable going to work? It used to work on my older mother board and XP, but so far, not in Vista. Any comments would be appreciated.

The supllied microsoft graphics driver will not work. Please download and install the latest ATI driver which is vista-compatible.

Are you connecting through a usb hub? What other usb devices do you have connected to your PC?
