October 2, 201114 yr OK.. You did an uninstall from the DVD or the Control Panel? ..and did you do a registry clean and a reboot?

October 2, 201114 yr Author I uninstalled it from the DVD. I didn't use the registry clean though. towerdude
October 2, 201114 yr Then you should really start the whole thing again, Jesse. The registry will have old pointers and data that will screw up the new install. You need to remove your logbook.bin and your shaders folders and your fsx.cfg files, as uninstalling doesn't always clear that stuff out. If we are to help get you out of this mess, we need you to follow our advice. Jim, Bert, Jahman, Ben and I have a lot of hours helping folks on this forum, and we do it willingly and voluntarily - but we need your cooperation and communication to do it. If you skip steps like this you stand the chance of introducing new problems that complicate it even further.@ Jahman - jump in any time! i7 [email protected] | 32GB RAM | EVGA RTX 3080Ti | Maximus Hero VII | 512GB 860 Pro | 512GB 850 Pro | 256GB 840 Pro | 2TB 860 QVO | 1TB 870 EVO | Seagate 3TB Cloud | EVGA 1000 GQ | Win10 Pro | EK Custom water cooling.
October 2, 201114 yr I can't find sp1.exe. I could only find the installer, but it never asked me if i wanted to uninstall or repair. It just reinstalled it.Then it wasn't installed in the first place. Best regards,Jim

October 4, 201114 yr Good Morning, Jesse.. Are you going to do another reinstall since your post #30? i7 [email protected] | 32GB RAM | EVGA RTX 3080Ti | Maximus Hero VII | 512GB 860 Pro | 512GB 850 Pro | 256GB 840 Pro | 2TB 860 QVO | 1TB 870 EVO | Seagate 3TB Cloud | EVGA 1000 GQ | Win10 Pro | EK Custom water cooling.
October 4, 201114 yr Author Yes I am. I also installed the registry cleaner you recommended me. towerdude
October 4, 201114 yr Good man! The fsx.cfg is in here:- C:\Users\(your username)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\Configs\The scenery config files are here:- C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\FSX\The Logbook.BIN and all of your saved FlightPlans are here:- C:\Users\(your username)\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files\The Shaders files are here:- C:\Users\(your username)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\FSX\ Soo, we're going to copy those directories, do the uninstall, and then see if they're still there. If they are - you need to delete them completely - OK? - but - before you do anything - what drives do you have, how big are they, and what space is left on them? i7 [email protected] | 32GB RAM | EVGA RTX 3080Ti | Maximus Hero VII | 512GB 860 Pro | 512GB 850 Pro | 256GB 840 Pro | 2TB 860 QVO | 1TB 870 EVO | Seagate 3TB Cloud | EVGA 1000 GQ | Win10 Pro | EK Custom water cooling.
