i'm a flightsim2000 user, i use add on's with fs2000. Occaisionally when i run an add-on in flightsim it displays an error message and refers to a file called ddhelp.exe. This file is located in the windows/system. What is this file's purpose and why is it causing my computer to display error messages and hang when i'm using fs2k.
Help would be apprieciated, i'm at my witt's end.

Luke,

The file is part of DirectX.

Go to start>Run, type dxdiag and look for version problems.

You can download the latest version 8.0 with this link:

A)

Check this file for clues:
C:\WINDOWS\Directx.log

have you read the readme.txt included with the game?

Here's a link to the DirectX Uninstaller, if neccessary:
