• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

I encountered similar problems back in 2016 running Windows 10 64bit. To cure it I had to source, install and register three files. Two of the files can be obtained via the link above. The following notes I made back in 2016 may be of help.

WARNING: please take great care as regsvr32 (which has potential to make your system unstable if used incorrectly) needs to be used. Read instructions carefully and do NOT proceed if you are not confident in what you are doing!

Each required file should be COPIED to:


32bit OS %systemroot%\system32 e.g. C:\Windows\system32
|- use the correct path in steps 1, 2 and 3 below!
64bit OS %systemroot%\SysWoW64 e.g. C:\Windows\SysWoW64


The first two files were obtained via the Flight1 support forums.
The third file was obtained from the link specified.
Shortly after downloading, installing and registering dx7vb.dll I discovered the dx7vb.exe on the Flight1
site which does the same thing automatically with dx7vb.dll :)


1. On a Windows 64bit OS the following file may be missing and, if so, needs to be installed


From an elevated Command Prompt Window - Window Key +X "Command Prompt (Admin)
%systemroot%\SysWoW64\regsvr32 %systemroot%\SysWoW64\SmartSubClass.dll


2. If the above does not help, you may have a corrupted or missing comdlg32.ocx file.


From an elevated Command Prompt Window - Window Key +X "Command Prompt (Admin)
%systemroot%\SysWoW64\regsvr32 %systemroot%\SysWoW64\comdlg32.ocx


3. Microsoft DirectX for Visual Basic (dx7vb.dll) version 5.03.2600.5512 obtained via
http://community.pcgamingwiki.com/files/file/56-microsoft-directx-for-visual-basic-dx7vbdll/


From an elevated Command Prompt Window - Window Key +X "Command Prompt (Admin)
%systemroot%\SysWoW64\regsvr32 %systemroot%\SysWoW64\dx7vb.dll
