Hi Pete I thought I would wait at until after Christmas day before I reported back. Unfortunately I still have this problem of FSX not loading. I followed the instructions from the link and renamed the existing DLL.XML file (there was no EXE.XML) to something else then D/L from the sub forum FSUIPC 4.638. I installed it and ran FSX,got it to trust FSUIPC closed it and then deleted the new DLL.XML file it created and renamed back the previous DLL.XML. Sadly the problem still exists. I wanted to attach the FSUIPC Log file but it is telling me I am not permitted to upload this kind of file ( as a newbie to the Forum can you advise me how I get it over to you please. Regards Keith

Thanks Pete for the prompt reply. I will go to the link and let you know how I get on Regards Keith

Hi Before we go any further its my fault for not reading the manual properly. I have a new PC and I have been installing FSX plus other associated software and last night I installed FS Commander. During this process it asked if I wanted to install FSUIPC4 to which without thinking I said yes (I already have a registered copy of FSUIPC4 on my old machine). This morning again without thinking I ran FSX and it came up with the first security box and instead of clicking the Don't Run' box I went and clicked the 'Run' Box. As a consequence of this FSX now hangs after the opening screen saying 'Loading Complete"' Reading the manual it tells me to d/l a fresh copy of FSUIPC4.DDl Can you tell me where I can find this please and any other assistance you can give me to get FSX running again would be much appreciated. Regards Keith
