I've read some threads on this site that address issues around FSUIPC freezing FSX at startup but honestly I don't understand the fix. My problem is this:
I have been using FSX with FSUIPC for severe years with little issue up until recently. I've been away from siming for the past year and just started up again a few days ago. When I started FSX again I got the unknown module - do you trust it warning for FSUIPC which I thought was strange because like I said I've been using it for a while. Anyway I hit yes and the startup screen opens but then 3-5 seconds after the screen freezes and I get the relentless swirling windows icon that eventually leads to a crash. I've tried uninstalling FSUIPC and running FSX and FSX runs fine, when I reinstall FSUIPC using the latest 4.853 module with or without the loader.dll I get the same thing, FSX freezes after the opening screen. I get a .log file but nothing is in it.
Any ideas? I really haven't done anything new since I was running FSX and FSUIPC successfully a year ago, did something change? I have a registration key, does it need to be renewed?
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks
Jim
