Alright, thanks a lot for all the answers, I'll try and fix that as you said, downloading and installing sp1 & sp2. The reason why I hadn't done it yet was that I've borrowed the game from a friend of mine, and I had a problem with registering online (although only one installation had been performed before...anyway), so I play with a "cracked" version with which I can't install the SPs so...I think I'll have to buy my own FSX :-) Thanks again, have a nice evening. Bye! Aurélien

Thanks for your quick answer! I have two files named FSUIPC4 in my FSX modules folder, and as you say, my windows must be set to hide the real filenames, so here is the one which is shown as a text file : ********* FSUIPC4, Version 4.60a by Pete Dowson ********* Reading options from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\FSUIPC4.ini" NOTE: SimConnect Acc/SP2 Oct07 is supported, but it isn't installed.

I'm sorry to look like I don't know a lot about what I'm talking about, but is this so-called "SimConnect" a software which I needed to download and install first? or is it already included in fsx, and maybe just needs to be updated? I'm gonna try and see that point while waiting for your answer! Thanks PS : sorry if my english looks strange sometimes, but I'm french and it's the first time I'm talking about technical stuff in english :-)

Hello! I've just read the description of Papa's problem, and realised that I have exactly the same one. Here is my dll.xml file which may be corrupted? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252" ?> - Launch dll.xml False False - Object Placement Tool True False ..\Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK\SDK\Mission Creation Kit\object_placement.dll - Traffic Toolbox True False ..\Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK\SDK\Environment Kit\Traffic Toolbox SDK\traffictoolbox.dll - Visual Effects Tool True False ..\Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK\SDK\Environment Kit\Special Effects SDK\visualfxtool.dll - FSUIPC 4 False Modules\FSUIPC4.dll Thanks in advance.
