Status: offline 		We still need to fix the erroneous drive bug issue. Glad you can at least run the game. We will be working and testing (lots of testing) on a 2.0.11 that works and has all the correct files loading. We sincerely apologize for the breakdown in the update and hot fixes.

Status: offline 		I appreciate your work. Sh...stuff happens. I know you will get it fixed. It has not kept me from playing, though I am hooked on learning this Barbarossa game right now. But I will keep checking on fixes and reporting back and will get back to your great game. After all, I spent five years of my life, two tours, on "Freedom's Frontier" in the 70s and 80s.

Status: offline 		JW, we may have you and Floyd test a new exe to see if it kills the bug dead. Rob is working on code now so hopefully in a few days we can get you guys hooked up if you are interested.

Status: offline 		My desktop has been checked out and repaired as needed. Was able to get orginial Flashpoint Campaign Red Storm 2.0 working (they thought dvd drive or compute may have been to hot). Loaded update from 2.06 thru 2.0.10, then Germany Reforged from the download I downloaded when I bought the orginal disk. Added 2.0.10b and FPRS you provided and the games works, stated 2.0.10b. Will try and finish game as soon as possible. That just, (only another issue you are working) the orginal Germany Reforged not working. Same error Failed to open output file. Thanks for the help. Great job.

Status: offline 		Turn my computer on the afternoon and when I clicked on play game, the error "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive\device\harddrisk1\DR1". When you click 4 times on either the cancel box or try again box or continue box, it takes you the game. The main menu it shows 2.0.10b. I will try to play a game later.

Status: offline 		Well, for the record, I no longer have the problem. I bought a new HP Windows 10 computer on Black Friday. Got it a couple of days ago. Installed the game and Reforged and updates, and it runs fine. Of course it still has that problem on my old Dell Windows 7 computer, so it is or was a real problem, but I won't be using that old computer any more.

Status: offline 		Floyd, this could be tied to the other error. We are working on getting a new test exe together to have certain folks like you check out to see if it solves these issues. We broke some code this weekend and once we get things straightened out we will be looking to contact folks to download and test.

Status: offline 		Upgraded former XP box to Win8.1 fresh install + full Windows updates, so machine is fully up to date.

Re-installed FPRS, 2.10b patch and Reforger to C:\Program File(x86)\Matrix Games folder and the game gives x4 'No disk in drive E' errors on startup.

Also lots of other errors about file access and files already existing when trying to start a scenario.

Changed Security priviledges under Matrix Games folder for all files to allow User write access. Hasn't cured everything but seems a bit better.

Will attach DXDiag and bug reports.

Status: offline 		Battlerbritain, Please try the 11.1 beta file on our website or via the members club. That should end the weird drive bug (windows and printer diver thing that a few folks have seen).

No popups for 'No disc in driver E:' AND I can open the 'Bruder gegen Bruder' EGerman Campaign at last.

Cheers Jim.
