[FSUIPC inexplicably causes a problem]

Thanks for the input, Ian.

The stick I have is quite old now (Cyborg Evo wireless) and has seen better days, so I may well replace it.

Pete,

This was for Vista 64, not Win7.

Pete,

Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction :smile:

It appears that the cause was the adaptor for the Saitek Cyborg wireless joystick. Removing that and uninstalling the software has got FSX working properly again.

In appreciation of your help, I will be buying the registered version of FSUIPC.

Dave.

FSX attempted to go straight to my default flight instead of the Create Flight screen, but still had a Fatal Error.

I did not have a [buttons] section in my ini file, so I added one with PollInterval=0, but still got a fatal error.

Also,

Event Viewer has multiple instances of DINPUT.dll as well as API.dll, DSOUND.dll and NTDLL.dll as faulting modules.

[FSUIPC inexplicably causes a problem]

I have been using FSUIPC for some considerable time without problems, but out of the blue I have a problem with it on my Vista 64-bit machine.

When I start FSX, I now get this message:

.

As I was using an old version, I installed the latest, but get the same error message.

If I answer 'no', FSX runs ok but without FSUIPC working. If I answer 'yes' FSX loads and runs ok, but on every subsequent restart FSX fails to start due to a Fatal Error. I have tried suggestions that I have found on this website, all to no avail.

I have also tried repairing Acceleration without success. I then tried uninstalling Acceleration and repairing FSX before reinstalling Acceleration, but that didn't work either.

Do you have any idea what else I can try?

Dave.
