Hi Pete, Thanks for your answer, i will check the documents (and network) and hope i will be able to track it..... Regards, Ben.

Hi Pete, I just connected a fourth client to my homebuild cockpit. Strange thing is that this one is causing the problem that once and a while there are 28 clients connected, as can be seen in the menubar of FS2004. This moment there are 4 clients connected, the other moment 11 clients connected and the other moment 28 clients connected......and back to 4 again. I use the registered versions with PM and aerosoft software. Any idea's what's causing this? Kind regards, Ben

Hi Pete, O.k. i will accept that this PC won't shut down with the hotkey. What i ment with my question about WinXP shuttung down the PC was that i thought i should configure winXP that way that the PC WILL shut down. Appearently this is not the case and is everything done within the Wideclient environment. Regards, Ben.

Hi Pete, PM support isn't updated by me about this problem. "Q" key did dhut down PM so i won't cantact them i think. maybe i found the problem and maybe you can help me..... The other PC's wich are shutting down with the hotkey CTLR-SHIFT-E on the FS server, aren't configured by me. Maybe i should tell WindowsXP on the "problem PC" that with this hotkey it should close PM, WC and WinXP? On the correctly shutting down PC's PM and WC are closing and directly thereafter WinXP is closing and the PC is shut off. So maybe i should tell WinXP what to do? Can you confirm this and give hints how to do that? Thanks in advance. regards, Ben.

Hi Pete, Thanks for your reply. Yes all other PC's are o.k. and the program versions are the same. I must say that i copied the program and .ini from the PC's that are closing o.k. so i don't miss any settings. Others " programmed those for me and i have put a new PC in the network by myself. That PC is running o.k. in the network though, i know that because it comes from my wideview system (5 PC's) now into my homebuild cockpit. Should i put a line somewhere into the server? The bug on PM loosing registration on non normal closing is known as others told me. It happened on one of my other PC's also. The "Q"key was unknown by me though....thanks. I hope you can give some further tips for the shutdown problem. Regards, 'Ben.

Hi all, One of my 5 PC's in my homebuild cockpit refuses to shutdown with my hotkey "CTL-SHIFT-E". I have put the line "Allowshutdown" in the clients ini but still one of the PC's refusus to shut down. Due to this i have to shutdown the PC unregurarely wich causes Project Magenta to lose it registration number....... Does anyone have some tips for my in order to make it work? Help is much apreciated. regards, Ben The Netherlands.
