Simconnect Is Not Loading During The Startup

[Guest BrandonBerish]

When I start up asx the lading screen comes on and displayes an error message that says "simconnect was not able to be loaded...this is required for operation with fsx!asx will continue to operate but will not update fsx weather!see the documentation for more information about sim connect.what can I do to fix this problem?

Hi,Make sure that SP1 is installed for FSX.If it is installed you are going to need to work backwards until you can uninstall SP1 and then reinstall it. This will not touch any of your other add-ons.Please let us know.Thanks,

Same problem here...I installed latest version of SDK (the one coming with Accelleration Pack) on my client PC.ASX Version 1167 is not loading SimconnectAI Traffic connection test works ok.Also before installling ASX version 1167 everything was ok (With Version 1160)What is appening now?Nick

Hi Nick,Did the problem start when you installed the SDK or B1167? This is the first report of B1167 having a network/Simconnect issue.Thanks,

Hi Jim,The problem started after having installed B1167.I double checked everything but every time I upgrade to B1167 the error "simconnect was not able to be loaded...this is required for operation with fsx!asx will continue to operate but will not update fsx weather!see the documentation for more information about sim connect" appears.So now I uninstalled ASX and Installed it again with B1160 which works almost ok (it crashes when a flight-plan is loaded...) but Simconnect works fine with it.I have WIN XP32 if you need to know.CiaoNick

Most certainly a problem with the patch . . . I hope this is fixed soon, I have too complicated of a ASX set up and have it on multiple servers, so uninstalling/reinstalling and patching is quite a chore. Please let us know what we can do to fix the problem or a fix in the B1167 that can be posted. ThanksJoe

Looks like that did the trick, however, now I notice an "Exception received: 7", what ever that means, but seems to work fine, I will try to load up a flight weather plan and see if any problems.Joe
