I'm pretty sure most versions until very recently would have worked. You seem to have left it a very long time indeed to update. Version 4.53 hasn't been supported now for well over two years, and there have been many updates since then. Your real problem is as illustrated in the log, "SimConnect Acc/SP2 Oct07 is supported, but it isn't installed". You appear to be using an out of date version of FSX. I would strongly advise you to install SP2. Alternatively, if there are good reasons not to, please try version 4.821 (see the Download Links subforum), which, as you'll see if you refer to the other thread on this ("FSX crashes when 'Free Flight' is selected", has been changed slightly to avoid a SimConnect problem in FSX SP1 and earlier. I realy don't want to see logs from very old versions, so if you still have problems please only paste in logs from supported versions. Thank you. Regards Pete

Ok ...the latest on my FSUIPC4 problem....I tried installing your new version 4.82....all went well and also registered it..etc...when I started FSX.. it did start up...however when I chose the aircraft...location..weather..and time....clicked to start flight....FSX started to load as usual then when it reached 100% loaded ..FSX crashed...(Fatal Error).....tried this several times...each time..FSX crashed....so I removed the FSUIPC4 4.82 module from FSX and tried again to load FSX and it worked fine without FSUIPC4....so I loaded FSUIPC4 4.53 which is what I always had in FSX..registered it and loaded FSX...FSX did work and loaded fine but no add-on for FSUIPC4 appeared on the tool bar on top of the FSX screen...so I tried this several times and no luck loading FSUIPC4 4.53 to the add-on tool bar in FSX although FSIPUC4 module is in the "Add On" module folder in FSX.....like I said originally...I never had a problem with FSUIPC4 within FSX...now for some reason after reinstalling FSX....FSUIPC4 is not responding...I copied and pasted the install log for 4.53 which I hope will help you out with my problem...thanks again for the help... ..Installer install for FSUIPC4.DLL version 4.53 Looking in registry for FSX install path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0 Parameter"SetupPath" ... >>> OK!

Really sorry to bother you with this but I've never had a problem with FSUIPC4..(I believe the latest version)...recently I had to do a complete reinstall of FSX due to other problems unrelated to FSUIPC4...I have an F-16 Radar gauge installed in each of my aircraft to keep a eye on all the AI planes flying around me...however when I start FSX and am at the airport..I can see all the aircraft on the ground as well as in the air...but when I switch on the Radar gauge..no traffic is displayed...this has never happened before...so I closed FSX and reregistered FSUIPC4..and started FSX...and the AI planes did appear in the Radar gauge....my question is.. it seems that I need to install and reregister FSUIPC4 before I start FSX and that seems to work..but I never had to do that process before...has anybody else had this problem and is there a fix to make FSUIPC4 work everytime I start FSX...sorry about the length of this question and I hope I made some sense...never had to reregister FSUIPC4 over and over in order to make AI planes appear on a radar gauge....thanks for any help...really appreciate this site and all that FSUIPC4 allows you to do in FSX...I do have a valid registered copy of FSUIPC4.
