Hello Pete and John, hope things are all right. Yeah, it was (and still is) crashing the sim as early as it starts; usually I can't even choose aircraft before it shuts itself back into the desktop. I did insert "NoWeatherAtAll=Yes" into the [General] section, as well as cleared the "wxstationlist.bin" from the specified folder... but almost to no avail. FSX-SE decided to stop opening altogether. For reference, I use ActiveSky Next as a weather engine, and for that latest flight things went smooth just as I was descending through 9k feet to land; other reference is that if I uninstall FSUIPC, FSX usually works fine with any addons, but it is needed to communicate with my VA's ACARS system (deltava.org). Could you please lend me a hand? Thanks in advance, Pedro. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ p.s. here's a print from my FSUIPC.INI, as well as the latest log.

Good evening, Pete! Hope everything is fine. After some months away from simming, I decided to start from scratch; formatted my computer, reinstalled the simulation and add-ons, and then asked to be reinstated into the VA I use to fly. All went well, up until I was prompted to install the VA's ACARS utility, which uses a copy of the latest FSUIPC v4.977. Before installing their utility, I've made some short test flights around beforehand , to check add-on aircraft, weather and traffic... all went cool. But when I was prompted to install FSUIPC, my system froze everytime I tried to fly a flight; usually before even starting, and at one point FSX-SE froze just at the preflight checklist. Here's my latest install log...
