It HAS worked in the past, and still does for all of my other games.

So, anyone???

What OS are you running?

What version of FSX?

Any add-on applications installed?

Any firewall/antivirus software installed?

[Ayork62493]

XP service pack 2
FSX Deluxe edition

ANd as for virus software just windows firewall.

Do you have a simconnect.xml file installed on the system?

OK, one step to try�.

1 - Delete the following file folder

C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS\x86_Microsoft.FlightSimulator.SimConnect_67c7c14424d61b5b_10.0.60905.............

2 - Insert the FSX CD, and run the repair utility. Basically we are looking to reinstall the folder.

3 - Hopefully this should remedy the issue.

Please let me know if this helps.

Tried that multiple times FSX would crash on startup.

[VincentG]

even after reinstalling FSX?

Do you have a simconnect.xml file installed on the system?

[Ayork62493]

Yes i do.

[VincentG]

Make sure it includes the following text..........

Also if you are making changes to the SimConnect.xml file, to allow ASX to function, this can then break SimConnect from functioning locally as well. This is resolved easily with applications such as FSUIPC, which when reinstalled add the local settings back into the xml file.

To remedy the issue, with 3rd party hardware/software, you need to have the local settings stay defined within the .xml file.

Example -




SimConnect
SimConnect.xml
False

*****************
False
Auto
local

4096
False
