FSX Steam Problem with 3rd Party software program

[Spuddy]

Hi Pete,

I have recently purchased FSX Steam and installed FSUIPC 4.962.  I am using Windows 7 and when I try to load FSX I get the following message 

FS detected a problem with third party software program (add-on)

Name FSUIPC4 DLL: FS new univesal IPC interface

Version 4.962

Company Peter L Dowson

File Module\FSUIPC4.dll

DO you want to run this software (not recommended)

When I run the program it says fatal error and shuts down FSX.

 I have noticed on the forums that sometimes you require certain information from users. Below is the installer log which you might need.

I have looked through the various forums and have not found the specific problem I am having however not being very computer literate i might have missed something. Please let me know if you require any further information.

Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

The install log doesn't help, as the install is okay. You need to see if FSUIPC.DLL was ever actually loaded and run. If it was then there would be an FSUIPC4.LOG file in the FS Modules folder. If there is one then I need to see it.

I also need to see the Windows crash data, as that tells me where it crashed and why. You'll get that from the Windows application logs collected in the windows Event Viewer.

The possibilities, from previous experience, include corrupted Weather files (.WX and wxstationlist.bin) and an out of date BGLMANX.DLL loading before hand. if you use anything from DreamTeam, like GSX and their sceneries, try downloading and running the latest AddOn Manager to make sure it is all up to date.

BTW ALWAYS POST SUPPORT QUESTIONS TO THE SUPPORT FORUM, i.e. here. You posted it to the reference subforum, FAQ. You are lucky I saw it.
