Sorry to get back to this late. I resolved the problem. It was a Windows update gone bad involving a .NET update. Once I resolved the Windows update issue (getting them installed), SimConnect and FSUIPC installed without a hitch. Spent 3 hours trying to "fix" the install. Below is the link detailing the issue and resolution the if anyone else runs into something similar. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-windows_update/windows-7-update-fails-with-code-80070308/f5b42dbc-3776-4051-beb2-f4d211bb0681

Thanks Pete. It's a Windows 7 problem. Updates are not installing. I think that's what's creating the problem. Not a FSUIPC4 or simconnect/steam problem. It's all me. Thanks for the help!

Just installed Steam by itself. No CD version of FSX. Just bought steam this last weekeend. I tried reinstalling last night. The simconnect "installed" (no error message), but it still re-installs every time still (with no error message). Also tried installing the simconnect installer and legacy programs in SDK, and none of them will install. They just gave me an error message ("An error occured during the installation of the assembly"). Seems my problem is the simconnect itself. Not sure if steam, or simconnect or computer. Googling didn't find much useful info. I'm on Windows 7 if that makes a difference. But the issue seems to no be your program. I have several controllers that I want to use with FSX and your program seems to be the best way to do it. Most of them are home built button boxes I built for racing simulation. Also, have a yoke and throttle coming to replace my joystick. Thanks for the help!

I just tried installing this 38b update on a Steam Edition, and it's failing. The error is the simconnect version. It's telling me that my simconnect version of 10.0.62607.0 won't work. "Need at least 10.0.606905.0" is what it says. Did it update since this was fixed? Also, simconnect installs new everytime I run FSX-SE from Steam. Not sure if that is the problem.
