  1. Hi I have used FSX booster since the original vers came out, i have windows 7 64bit, with ariane 737er; pmdg 747, md11, js41; all the wilco airbus series, Aerosoft airbus x payware aircraft. REXHD; utx and gex along with quite a few payware airports and scenery all of them run without any problem. FSX has the accellerator installed and I use FSX booster vers 2.9.9.9, All of the above are installed into the root of C:\ drive, not in the program 86 folder. The problem I am experiencing with the latest ver of booster is when I run it and start FSX from booster FLY NOW button or any other means of start up I get the same result frame rate set at 43fps (the fsx setting, booster is set at unlimited) and frame rates of 35- 42. I get this if i start FSX without booster running. This leads me to think that booster isn't haveing any effect. The previous vers always changed the frame rate to unlimited although I had varying frame rates. AS a matter of interest I have tried installing booster into its default program 86 location and I get the same result.

    Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

    Thanks Phil

  2. Does FSX entirely take the place of FSX Booster. Should I delete it off my system? Would that affect Extreme FSX? Both seem to have been working well and I have really enjoyed the boost. I upgraded to Extreme FSX but not clear about what to about cleaning up FSX Booster. Any insight into the process would be appreciated.

    How do your frame rates compare using the new extreme fsx against the FSx booster?

  3. Hi Volker, I successfully installed FSX by manually making a folder C:\Microsoft Flight Simulator X. Fsx had no problem installing into that I started the setup file using admin rights. I have spent the next few hours reinstalling SP1 & 2 plus all my addon scenery and aircraft plus FCUIPC 4.57 then FSC all using admin rights.

    All installed ok,all updated to airac 1001, but still have to start FSX AND FSC without admin rights to get them to connect. This is ok with level D B767 and Wilco 737PIC but PMDG JS41 and Wilco Airbus vol 1 have issues where they have to be started with FSX in admin rights this means I can't get a connection to FSC.

    FSC is saving the flightplans ok, but I still havn't worked out how to retrieve them and load into the aircrafts FMC.

    UIPC Hello is giving Sim is FSYETANOTHER FSUPC 4.570 CLOCK 02:03:13

  4. Hi Volker, Thanks for your quick reply. Did you install your FSX into the root directory of C: ? I ask this because when I have tried to install FSX onto C: the install program states that it cannot be intalled into the root directory. I have FSC installed as you say in C:\FSC no problem. the FSX issue suggests to me that it has to be installed as C:\...\FSX. ie in a sub directory of C:

    Perhaps C:\Games\Microsoft Flight simulator X ??

    Thanks Phil Broadhurst

  5. Hi On the forum sticky it explains not to install FSX in program files in windows 7 64 bit. After a few problems with FSX installed in the default program files(486x) and FSC 8.6 as described in one of my other posts. I decided to bite the bullet and uninstall FSX and follow the advise and reinstall in C:/ the first problem was the setup program won't allow an install into the root directory so I made a folder called "Flight sim" Fsx installed into this but not as a sub directory so Microsoft Flight simulator X was now simply Flight Sim if you follow.This then gave me problems when trying to install the add on scenery I have mega airport Londow Heathrow and Vfr London, due to the folders bing incorrectly named I suspect. I have now uninstalled everything again to start afresh.

    Can you please advise how you have installed FSX into C: when I get it up and running I can the reinstall FSC.

    Thank you Phil Broadhurst

  6. My problem is related I think but slightly different, I have set up my FSX flightplan folder in options (FSC 8.6) when I "save as" to any of the folders FSC or to FSX a message comes up "Flight plan cannot be saved because FS Path unknown! Please specify FS path in options window!" I click ok and the save as ends. I have checked the folders and the flightplan has actually saved to the correct place. Why is this annoying warning coming up?

    Another question I have the PMDG JS 41 installed I can save a flightplan to the PMDG/FLIGHTPLAN folder but the JS41 FMC cant pick it up, I save it with the PMDG option ticked. I should add that I am using windows 7 64bit, FSC 8.6 build 200110 I have FSX and FSC configured to start in admin mode automatically.

    I hope you can help

    Thanks Phil Broadhurst
