PMDG 737NGX DirectX Setup SERIOUS ISSUE

Featured Replies

  • Author

Its sad that I have to uninstall my entire system for the sake of one plane by PMDG. I will be removing Windows OS 7 Home Premium 64 and uninstalling FSX in its entirety. Because of one plane, but hey, I'll have a fresh install and we will see if the problem was my system or the 737 NGX. If its the 737 NGX, I'll post a video to explain what happened. If it successfully installs correctly then I will post a video with the results for that too.

Its fixed, I finally got it to work. I ended up buying a new SSD first though and then I did a clean install of Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. Their seemed to be an issue with the DirectX on my rig and I couldnt get passed it.. So doing complete reinstall of the system was my only option. I wanted a bigger SSD anyway for the OS. Now the PMDG 737 NGX is on my system and it is a beauty. I have to go to sleep because I stayed up all night working on this. I will post more results tomorrow. Thank you for trying to help me AVSIM Forum. I honestly dont know what caused that to happen but its gone now. marcanthonystorm

I took the advice of one of our fellow simmers and reinstalled Windows 7, but I bought a new SSD 120gb to replace my 80 gb and I also uninstalled FSX from my D drive 240gb SSD and flat lined it (Formated) it and that was the solution. I didnt like doing it but Im happier than ever with FSX now. Solved the problem and even made REX work better than ever and solved an issue with Megascenery Vegas and US cities Vegas to make them all work together with out having multiple buildings of the same kind in the same foot print. Also have FSDT Vegas too. Happy happy happy. But I want to help the others here having an issue with this plane or the scenery. Thank you for asking. The problem was somewhere with my version of Direct X and it didnt want to accept the new version for nothing. Marc
This isnt about being rude, its about the thousands of other products that do work without jumping through hoops to get them to work. I just spent money for a product which failed to launch because it wasntthoroughly tested but it was sold with a million safety glitches which stop you from torrenting it. But I didnt torrent, I bought. As for the God Like PC it doesnt need fixing, the PMDG 737NGX does. Why else are there so many complaints about it being installed. Thank you for putting in your two cents and not having the correct answer, thats why nothing gets done in the world and thats why when someone has a question about fsx on youtube I answer it by helping them solve the problem. Not giving them lip. Im sure if it didnt work on your RIG you might be a little bit disappointed too.

Sorry you had to read that but that problem was solved and I have apologized to my brothers here for being angry about something I couldn't get to work properly in the beginning. But it's all good now. Marc
