Update your video drivers then :

Browse to your game folder C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\redist

1) Run the Direct X installer in the DirectX folder.
2) Run the dotNetFx40_Client_x86_x64.exe installer in the DotNetFx40_Client folder.
3) Run the vcredist_x86.exe installer in the folder VCRedist

regards

Question

Hello again,

[I]"Browse to your game folder C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\redist

1) Run the Direct X installer in the DirectX folder.
2) Run the dotNetFx40_Client_x86_x64.exe installer in the DotNetFx40_Client folder.
3) Run the vcredist_x86.exe installer in the folder VCRedist"[/I]
= Done but same problem....

So I need to upgrade my RAM to 4GB : I will (around 33 euros in France)

Could you explain what means: "to upgrade my OS to a 64-bit."
What is a "OS 64-bit"? How many bits have my computer? Where do I have to look at to know it?

I have a CPU: AMD Athlon X2 Processor 64

Does it mean I do have a OS 64-bit?

Is it a difficult question?

The 64 in your CPU description means, that it is able to run in 64bit mode, for the OS, it runs at 32bit. So the OS is theoretically able to address 4GB of Ram, there are hardware and software restrictions preventing it from doing so. to upgrade to a 64bit OS, you´ll have to buy a new OS, judging by what i read, Windows 7 in a 64bit edition should be your choice, as it seems, that CloD runs more smooth on it as on XP/Vista for example.

I read a post in this forum, that the upgrade from winXP to Win7 made a lot of difference! and if you got later about 4 gb ram or more (more is always good ) I would run Win7 with 64bit!
Btw, i got also win7 without trouble and...no, i`m not working for gates!

OS as in Operating System.
You have Win XP 32 bit, which means your OS can utilize up to 3gb of ram.
The recommendation is to buy win7 64 bit, which can utilize all the ram you can put on your motherboard.
And it is an exellent recommendation, win7 is lightyears better than win xp.
The only downside is it means spending money.
Here in the US you have two choices when buying a new operating system.

Retail - you get a nice boxed version of the OS and can install it on as many
computers as you like.
OEM version - very simple packaging and you can use it only on one computer at a time, of course the OEM version is something like half the price of the retail version.

If you buy win7 I would honestly buy a new hard drive as well, shouldn't be too expensive, depends of course on what you choose a bit. Put the new hard drive in your computer, take the old one out, start the computer, insert the win7 disk in your dvd drive and the rest win7 will do for you, very easy.
