  1. Pete, I looked in the modules folder, there is no log file there.

    I now uninstalled the fscopilot & fsinn programs. I tried to reinstall FSUIPC, it said the install went ok. I checked again inside the modules folder but there still is no log.

    I did find a dll.xml file in the FSX.cfg file. Here is what it says:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252" ?>

    -

    Launch

    dll.xml

    False

    False

    -

    Object Placement Tool

    True

    False

    ..\Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK\SDK\Mission Creation Kit\object_placement.dll

    -

    Traffic Toolbox

    True

    False

    ..\Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK\SDK\Environment Kit\Traffic Toolbox SDK\traffictoolbox.dll

    -

    Visual Effects Tool

    True

    False

    ..\Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK\SDK\Environment Kit\Special Effects SDK\visualfxtool.dll

    Let me know if you need any other info

  2. Peter, one more thing. I see the addon menu at the top of flight sim. I have FSCopilot there but no FSUIPC. The install of FSUIPC did report ok, I do have a modules folder inside FSX now, but the modules dll is version 4.0.1.5. I have tried the V4.2 again but it is not showing.

    Any more thoughts?

    Thanks

  3. Ok here is what I found out from Microsoft Tech Support

    Under C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS

    there is the x86_SimConnect folder, it should have the simConnect.dll file in it.

    Under C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS\Manifest-

    There should be a simconnect mainfest file and a security catalog file.

    Both of these have to be renamed to x86_Microsoft.FlightSimulator.SimConnect_67c7c14424d61b5b_10.0.60905.0_x-ww_429211e9. This is the product ID number.

    It took 2 hours but I finally have it working now, thank you for all of the guidance you gave me, at first he had no idea what I was talking about but persistance pays LOL.

    BTW all three of these files can be found on the FSX install disk one.

    If you find anyone that did not get it installed properly.

    For some reason it did not automatically install for me.

    Thanks Again

  4. Pete, I went home for lunch, here is what I found:

    There are 3 SimConnect files on the FSX disk one.

    SimConnect.dll

    SimConnect.dll manifest file

    Some type if SimConnect exe log file.

    I copied the SimConnect.dll file and pasted it into the Windows\Winsxs folder (the one that was empty)

    I copied the manifest file into the same Winsxs folder.

    Did not work.

    I then tried the mainfest file into the Winsxs\manifest folder

    Did not work.

    I guess I will try another reinstall when I get home.

  5. Peter, It is version 4.02. I did have the Beta version installed a few weeks ago. I installed FSX last week and all the addons were working fine. I was experiencing horrible frame rates so I did a reformat of my hard drive and started over again. The Flight Sim X runs ok now and frame rates are great.

    I did find the SimConnect.dll file in my:

    Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X file

    Yes, by add on I mean at the top of the Flight simX menu header next to help..

  6. I have reviewed all of the latest stickys and some of the posts regarding this subject. I still cannot get the FSUIPC 4.0 file to install. I keep getting that error meassage telling me to execute the simconnect.msi file. I just did a reformat of drive C the other day and am starting out fresh. I have FSX installed. I do not have any other firewalls installed and I have disabled the windows firewall.

    I cannot see the add on file at the top of FS, I did install FSinn and Copilot too.

    Any thoughts?

    Thanks

  7. Peter, I am installing version 4 for FSX. After I click the run button I get a dialog box asking where my FSX.exe is located. I navigate over to MSgames/Flight Simnulator X and select the FSX.exe icon, but after that I get a message that my FSX installaton is not suitable for this version of FSUIPC. You may need to install an update from Microsoft?

    Any ideas.

    Thanks
