Thanks for the reply, I'm not much of a computer whizz but I did some cleaning up and sorted out the old directories for FSX and P3D V2 - I have started afresh and reinstalled p3d v3.2 - I have now been able to install FSUIPC as I have a log file. I still have the same issue of the load screen hanging - I should mention that I am using Windows 10: ********* FSUIPC4, Version 4.949h by Pete Dowson ********* Prepar3D.exe version = 3.2.3.16769 Reading options from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\Modules\FSUIPC4.ini" Running inside Prepar3D v3 on Windows 8.0 Module base=581A0000 FSUIPC4 Key is provided WIDEFS7 not user registered, or expired 156 System time = 14/03/2016 21:59:57 156 FLT path = "C:\Users\Ian\Documents\Prepar3D v3 Files\" 156 ------ Module Version Check ------ 156 acontain.dll: 3.2.3.16769 156 api.dll: 3.2.3.16769 156 controls.dll: 3.2.3.16769 156 fs-traffic.dll: 3.2.3.16769 156 G3D.dll: 3.2.3.16769 156 language.dll: 3.2.3.16769 156 sim1.dll: 3.2.3.16769 156 visualfx.dll: 3.2.3.16769 156 weather.dll: 3.2.3.16769 156 window.dll: 3.2.3.16769 156 ---------------------------------- 156 Trying C:\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\Modules\SimConnectP3D2.dll 234 Found it: trying to connect 281 FS path = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\" Thanks again Ian

Hi Pete I was hoping you might be able to help me with FSUPIC. I have just returned to flight sim and whilst I can usually work out how to fix issues I am struggling a bit with this one. I have purchased FSUIPC 4. When I go to install it I cancel the FSX request as I don't have it installed and the programme seems to find P3D fine. The problem is that once installed P3D just hangs at the load page. When I remove FSUIPC it works again. I have read through some of the responses you have already provided on this issue and have tried the suggestions. I have copied the install report below. I do not have a log in the modules folder which suggests it hasn't installed correctly. I have manually installed sim connect from within the redist folder in P3D - service pack 2 XPACK but this hasn't worked. I have also updated the drivers on my joystick. I'm just not sure what I am doing wrong or if I have missed something. Much appreciate any help you can offer. In the modules folder in P3D I have - FSUIPC Documents/ FSUIPC install4/ FSUIPC4.DLL/ FSUIPC.KEY/ simconnectp3d2.dll Installer for FSUIPC4.DLL version 4.949h Looking in registry for FSX install path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0 Parameter"SetupPath" ... >>> OK!
