Being brain dead, i bought "Whirlwind over Vietmnam"...my system meets all the specs, but the game will not run...i have installed/re-installed...game gives me the first logo screen, looks like it's loading and then goes to desktop...don't see any patches on the Evolved Games site..so, any suggestions? I have the latest drivers for my graphics card and have direct X 9.0c...also a direct x diagnostic shows all is well....any links for help? Thanks

The "sim" basically tanked. Very buggy, didn't fit either the arcade or simulation market, and the one guy from there that was answering questions here pretty much disappeared. A let-down for helo simmers, for sure. Return it, get your money back, and wait for DCS's "Black Shark".

There's a good Vietnam mod for OFP, if you have that. Or the now-aging Battlefield Vietnam, although that's as far from sim as you can get. \:\)
