[Solved]FSX not starting - deleted reply? - Fabrice - 18-07-2010

Hi all,

Yesterday, I added a reply to an "old" thread regarding a problem with FSX not starting after FsP install. This
morning, my question has been deleted
and the topic is back to yerdeday's status. As a legitimate customer, I would expect to have replies to my questions
or at least have an explanation
on why my question was deleted...

So today I create a new topic: I re-installed FSX SP2 and FsP. After install, when starting FSX, I have the blue
welcome screen poping up, and
nothing. If after a while, I click on the FSX icon in the task bar, I hear the welcome message from FSX, then the
standard menu comes, but with the
plane 3D view completely black. If I launch a flight, nothing happens. I have to kill the FSX task. The problem
disapear as soon as I uninstall FsP.

I have Vista 32 SP1, and FsP used to work on the same system with same Vista installation.

Thanks for your help.

Fabrice

1) Did you look at the last post time-stamp in the original topic you posted in - if the last post was more than a year old, then your post would have
been removed due to necroposting.
2) Have you actually performed a search of the forums and read the FAQ on this matter: there are a number of topics related to this.




Re: FSX not starting - deleted reply? - Fabrice - 18-07-2010

Yes I actually did look at the FAQ and cannot find anything related to this. I also searched the forum and did find the topic I replied
(http://www.fspassengers.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=7785&pid=73024#pid73024). It's actually more than one year old, but no solution was given, that's
why I asked. Nothing did inform me that I shouldn't reply to that topic.

Now english is not my mother tongue, so maybe I don't use the correct search terms. I really would appreciate if you could help me finding the solution.

Thanks,
Fabrice

I was the one who deleted the post, but I sent you a message stating why I deleted your post and the possible solution(s) to the issue.
May I suggest that you check you internal messages?

My fault, I did not see that message. I recognize I did not see there was a internal message system. Thanks for this.

Any clue for my problem?

Thanks,

Oh, and by the way: Yes, I run FSX and everything as an admin.


Re: FSX not starting - deleted reply? - Fabrice - 18-07-2010

So... I noticed that if I delete the FSX folder inD:\Users\My Profile\AppData\Roaming and re-launch FSX, it works (without FsP, as it does not detect
that it's installed). So I thought that maybe my profile was not cleaned enough last time I uninstalled. I uninstalled everything and re-installed
everything (this took two hours). FsP now works, but I have to configure everything correctly now to obtain the best FPS. But at least, it works...

Hope this can give a clue to those who experienced the same in the two topics I found and where no solution was given...
