Computer Upgrade, FSUIPC problems

Rick Hirsch · February 5, 2017

Hi,

I just upgraded my computer and tried to install FSUIPC but I can not get it to work. When I start FSX: SE it says there is a problem with the installation. Here is the log:

Thanks for your help

Hi,

FSUIPC4 installed OK into FSX-SE as the log file shows, over a already existing FSUIPC4.961.

1. The Windows crash log would be needed, from Event Explorer

2. The FSUIPC4.log file would also be needed please

3. What crash message do you get?

Thomas

Rick Hirsch · February 5, 2017

I am sorry, but can you tell me where to find those logs you need. Windows didn't crash, just FSX. I will try to get you a screenshot of the crash.

Rick Hirsch · February 5, 2017

Here is screenshot. Hope you get it.

Rick Hirsch · February 5, 2017

It says it is too big.

Rick Hirsch · February 5, 2017

Thomas Richter · February 5, 2017

It is too small to read, maybe you can write out what it says instead please?

The Event explorer of windows will tell when a App (like FSX) did crash with detailed information.

The FSUIPC4.log file you will find in your main FSX folder in subfolder Modules, actually from your install log file:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\Modules\

just copy the full content of that file and paste it into your message here.

Hi,

just press Ok / confirm to run. That is needed to register FSUIPC4 as trusted in FSX.cfg file. It will ask/ tell that only once (which each new installed version of any DLL file like FSUIPC or other add-ons).

Thomas

Rick Hirsch · February 5, 2017

So I should be good? Thanks for your help

Thomas Richter · February 5, 2017

Also the FSUIPC4.log file shows it did already run Ok and also closed correct when the session had finished.

Just enter "Event Viewer" into the Windows Start / Run edit box and press return.
