  3. Q. When I select the Abacus Platinum Collection DA40 TDI Diamond Star from my Flight Simulator Aircraft menu, the Unregistered Aircraft dialog box won't allow me to click on the Try it for free button. Why not?

    A. Most likely, the seven day trial period has expired. The trail period begins the first time you click on the Try it for free button and continues for seven consecutive days. After this trial period has expired, you'll need to purchase a Registration Key to unlock the trial expiration.

    A. In order to fly any of the Platinum Collection aircraft, you'll need to have a small program in your \modules folder named 'asreg01.dll'. This program keeps track of the trial period and registration information.

    If you see this message, simply reinstall the aircraft, making sure that you choose your main FSX folder or main FS2004 folder as the destination directory.
