Hi again, all I did was to install RC V 4.2 using the auto installer. I was using AdvDisp (I guess v 2.1.4.) before and I think RC V 4.2 came with the latest version of Adv Disp (V 2.1.5.1), which was also installed automatically. (Maybe without deleting the old files first?) I did notice however, that there were some additional buttons on the AdvDisp menu afterwards, when I rightclicked into the AdvDisp window and also that the background of the AdvDisp window was transparent. ( which was the prob it all started with). At that moment I wasn´t aware of the functionality of FSUIPC (ATC-window) and I surely hadn´t activated it (unless it is activated by default). So when I clicked on AdvDisp in Modules, the window came on-without the checkmark- (like seen in the attachment). So when I turned on FSNav the AdvDisp was displayed there also - maybe because I didn´t "dock" the window. Another click on AdvDisp in Modules and the window was off. I also noticed -like you´ve mentioned in another thread-, that I had to click exactly on a letter of the text, which was displayed in this AdvDisp window in order to get to the menu of AdvDisp. But meanwhile I´ve switched to the ATC window of FSUIPC. I just wanted clarify what I did, before I opened this thread. It worked before I did the RC update and afterwards it didn´t. And I just couldn´t figure out why, because it almost looked the same to me. Thanks again for your time Yours Torsten

Hi Pete :oops: I apologize for asking stupid questions. But I wasn´t aware that FSUIPC 3.70 was able to display ATC Data. Out of ignorance I suppose. All I cared about was the joystick calibration. But Adv Disp was working just fine before the update and when it didn´t afterwards, I was a bit confused. I already did the update of FSUIPC 3.71 and also studied the manual and found everything you´ve pointed out. Again sorry for stealing you time Torsten :oops:

Hi all :-) I´ve upgraded my Radar Contact to V 4.2. It came with a cd and an automatic installer. During the installation I had to choose if I wanted a full or minimum install. Both included AdvDisp and FSUIPC. After the installation process I´ve noticed, that the Adv Disp window won´t accept any change in back color. The Background stays transparent (see attachment). I also noticed that the checkmark on the left side of the ADV Disp entry in "Modules" doesn´t show, although the AdvDisp window is displayed. Also the Adv Disp window is displayed, even when I leave the Flightsim. Before this update everything was peachy. I really don´t know what to do, because I can´t remember tweaking anything. Does someone know, if I did a wrong turn somewhere? Oh and another question. I´m using a registered version of FSUIPC 3.70 since July 06. Do I have to buy FSUIPC again if I want to update /upgrade to V 4.05? Thanks in advance for your time Yours Torsten :(
