I am seeing this on the RU version as well, seemed to get better when i set the video to the monitors native resolution?
I have a 2500 pixel monitor, I was trying to tone it down to get some better performance.

Default Check game cache (CRC check of installed files) after new install

Sometimes it happens that after installing a new game thru Steam you have some file corruption. You can perform an integrity check of the game cache.
Even if the game cache is not corrupt, it sometimes pays of to also check the file cache fragmentation.

Verify integrity of game cache:
1.Load Steam
2.From the Library section, right-click on the game and select Properties from the menu.
3.Select the Local files tab and click the Verify integrity of game cache... button.
4.Steam will verify the game's files - this process may take several minutes.
5.Once the process is completed, the Check Window will automatically exit.

If any corruption is found, Steam will re-download any of the files that failed the CRC.

Any idea why ?.... i can load the game, two il2 tabs appears in my task bar below. Alt Tab on one.. is Blank Black full screen, the 2nd is the game itsself.


i am running win xp SP3, dell vostro 410, quad core 2.66ghz 4g ram.

Any one having this issue? solution ?
i had strange things happening in the sim right after install.

shut down, power off and restart your pc after install, solved everything for me.

I had the same problem; the thing that worked for me was turning off "voice" and "music" in the sound options. It's still a slide show on my old rig, but after a frustrating evening I've finally got it to work!

Same problem here. Tried all of the above with no success. I’m getting sick and tired of new releases not working!

What is the fix to this problem!!!
