Version installed - 4.968

Client - FSX: Steam Edition
Operating System - Windows 10 Pro 64-bit

Was working fine and I received this error message this morning. Referred to FAQ, trusted modules does not show a negative number and there's no registry key entry as mentioned here -

Clicking No launches FSX:SE with no FSUIPC functionality, Clicking Yes causes this to occur

What I've done:

- Removed FSUIPC from modules
- Reinstalled
- Reset FSX.cfg (deleted it, let it rebuild) and re-trusted FSUIPC

Has nothing changed on your system leading to this? Because the software won't have changed -- well, except by possible corruption.

The Log is odd. It finished just after this:

      188 ---------------------- Joystick Device Scan -----------------------
      188 Product= Microsoft Nano Transceiver 1.1
      188    Manufacturer= Microsoft
      188    Vendor=045E, Product=07FD (Version 3.21)
      203 -------------------------------------------------------------------

Now that point is where it tries to Acquire the identified devices so they can have buttons and axes assigned.

Can you tell me what a "Microsoft Nano Transceiver 1.1" is? Is it a joystick type device? i.e. does it have buttons or axes you can use in FS?

My guess is that it's a device which is not amenable to the normal DirectInput calls, and this is the cause of the problem.

There was a similar report a while back, but for a different device. However, I tightended up the criteria for deciding which devices FSUIPC scanned, and released interim updates for 4.968 which proved successful, so my advice would be to download and install the newly released full version, 4.969, and try that. It is linked from the usual Schiratti site (the text there is stil out of date) and it is also available in the Download Links subforum above.

Hi Pete,

Thanks for the quick response. The Microsoft Nano Transceiver 1.1 is a USB dongle for a wireless mouse. It's a mouse I've had (with the dongle connected) for the better part of 2 years. In fact, I don't know if I'm unplugged the dongle since plugging it in. I've been using it with FSX and FSUIPC since late mid 2015.

  • I updated to 4.969 and received the same error
  • I removed the dongle and received the same error

A restart with the dongle removed was successful on the next launch. If I connect the dongle and launch FSX I receive the error message. If I remove the dongle and launch FSX I do not receive the error message.

So I guess that'll be the work flow moving forward. Odd that this is suddenly happening but that definitely appears to be the issue.

No other hardware/software changes in the last year.

Thanks,

Jason

It shouldn't happen with 4.969 unless it DOES identify itself as a joystick type device.

So I can see what is going on please add these lines to the General section of the FSUIPC ini file and show me the Log file and the CSV file.

Debug=Please

Logextras=x200000
