Good day Pete,
I am assisting my flight school with a simulator setup. The details include:
- MS FS 2004
- Windows ME
- FSUIPC 3.99 (bundled with WideFS) purchased earlier today
I have run the "Install FSUIPC" application which advises FSUIPC.DLL Version 3.99 installed in FS9 Okay! I don't get the pop-up to register however.
I have confirmed that the .ini and .dll files are in the FS9 modules folder. I have also copied the wideserver.exe and wideserver.ini files in the modules folder.
I had gone as far as to create the FSUIPC.key file and enter the details as per the email received subsequent to purchase earlier today.
When I run FS9 (MS FS 2004), I get the following error:
"Flight Simulator was unable to load some aircraft or software. You can continue using Flight Simulator but this software or software will be disabled. File. FSUIPC.DLL"
The installer log contents:

===========================================================
INSTALLATION FOR FS9:
EXE Path="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\FlightSimulator 9"
Checking if there's already a version of FSUIPC installedin:
C:\ProgramFiles\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9\Modules\FSUIPC.DLL
... No previous valid version found.
Okay -- installed FSUIPC into "C:\ProgramFiles\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9\Modules\FSUIPC.DLL"
"Modules\FSUIPC Documents" folder already exists.
Now installing additional files into the"Modules\FSUIPC Documents" folder:
Installed"FSUIPC User Guide.pdf" okay
Installed"FSUIPC for Advanced Users.pdf" okay
Installed"FSUIPC History.pdf" okay
Installed"List of FS2004 controls.pdf" okay
Installed"GlobalSign Root.exe" okay
Installed"FSUIPC Lua Library.pdf" okay
Installed"FSUIPC Lua Plug-Ins.pdf" okay
Installed "LuaLicense.pdf" okay
Installed "LuaPlugins for VRInsight Devices.pdf" okay
Installed"Example LUA plugins.zip" okay
Installed"SIMSAMURAI+FSUIPC+TUTORIAL.pdf" okay
FSUIPC.DLL installed and signature checked out okay!
Deleted GlobalSign Root fix program ... no longer relevant
===========================================================
All installer tasks completed okay!
I don't see any other log file. the wideserver.log file states that FSUIPC not installed.
Looking forward to your guidance.
