Doesn't Microsoft offer a 30 day money back guarantee?

Freezing can have lots of causes:

- Overheating due to overclocking or broken fan(s)
- Bugs in video-drivers: use the latest driver of ur manufacturer
- Bugs in game-software: look for updates
- Bugs in windows: use windows installer or Service Packs to use most recent
componenets for ur windows (windows Update?)
- Instable Internetconnection, if using multiplayer game

Hi,

    I have just bought FS2004 and installed fine and went through the final
configuration steps. Once completed I ran the game for the first time and it
said completing installation. After a minute or so it took me back to the
desktop so I double clicked on the icon again and brought up the splash
screen for about 2 seconds then went away again. It didn't proceed any
further.

I am getting random crashes with this game.  I play N2003, Call of Duty, and
BF1942.  I don't have any problems with these games.  After flying for 15-30
mins or so the Flight sim game locks up.  I have the graphics pretty much
maxed out.  I don't think it is a heat issue, I just bought a new case, fans
and power supply about a month ago.  I'm starting to think it may be a
driver issue.  The crashing is very similar to my Desert combat crashing
before I switched drivers.  After that the crashing stopped.  I am currently
using the 45.23 drivers.  The have historically given me the best
performance and stability.  I don't use the newest drivers due to losing
about 10 fps with NASCAR 2003.  Anyone else having any problems with the
45.23's and this game?  Thanks for reading, computer specs as follows:

AMD 2400+
40 and 80 gb hd's
512 mb pc2100
MSI NForce 1 motherboard with onboard sound
EVGA 5950 Ultra
Chenming aluminum case with 2x80mm blowing in, 2x80mm fans blowing out, and
a PCI fan blowing out next to my video card
Antec 550w ps

All bios, and drivers current (with the exception of the video card, 45.23)

8. MS Flight Sim 2004/PC configuration 

Hello,
Microsoft says the System Requirements for Flight Simulator 2004: A
Century of Flight are;
* PC with 450 MHz equivalent or higher processor
* 128 MB of system RAM for 2000/XP, 64 MB RAM for 98/Me
* 8 MB video card required

But, realistically, what type of PC do I need to play the game with
all the bells and whistles turned on?

Thank you for your time.
