Sorry, but you don't need to "run" FSUIPC. Once correctly installed it simply rns as part of FSX.

 

Perhaps you could explain exactly what it is you are doing when you get this "black screen"? FSX has ALWAYS changed to a black screen when showing a SimConnect-requested dialogue box.  Is that what you mean?

 

Please ALWAYS state the actual version number of FSUIPC when asking for support.

My apologies i start up FSX  i then select options then select fsupic screen goes black and nothing further happens i have listed the following log for your info

Installer for FSUIPC4.DLL version 4.949

 

The Installer log shows a correct install. By the sound of it you don't have an install problem. The more relevant log is the run-time log "FSUIPC4.LOG". 

 

However, it sounds very like the dialogue window is somehow occurring BEHIND your FSX window (which will go black in any case). This is almost always a video driver problem. See if it happens in FSX Windowed mode (ALT + ENTER to switch between the two). If not then it is certainly related to the video driver setup on your PC. The FSUIPC dialogue is a standard Windows dialogue and should be drawn over the full-screen FSX, but sometimes drivers get full screen mode wrong.
