GOOD NEWS, PETE. I found SP1 on the Microsoft download page. Ran it into FSX and everything now works fine. Many thanks and I'm relieved that the problem is solved.

I recently re-installed FSX as for some reason I lost all sound from flights. I did the usual uninstall without deleting the folders. Previous to that I am sure that SP1 was installed. I will copy over FSUIP log for you.

Sounds as though it is a corrupted DLL.MXL file, as you suggest. What can I do about that? I have no programming experience. I purchased the program because I enjoyed using it so much in the past when I was using the excellent Austrian Airline virtual. I don't believe in working for nothing and €30 is a small price to pay for such excellent work.

After a break of 4-5 years I have returned to flightsim with FSX. I immediately purchased and registered FSUIP 4.60 only to be greatly disappointed with no listing under 'Add-Ons' after installation. I have looked at other solutions within the forum to no avail. As a pensioner on a very small income I have to have wasted nearly €30. Is this a common fault or am I just unlucky. I used previous versions on FS98 and beyond for many years with no problems. Keith Hale
