March 3, 201214 yr I had to reinstall Windows7/64 and so FSX and all addons (a lot). Everything worked fine until I came to my NGX and JS41.Installing the base pack of the NGX, it did not asked me for an installation key, in the dll there are PMDG entries missing (like Options etc.) and I have only half of the cockpit. The JS41 installed fine, asked for the key, but the instruments are blank.I have checked the dll and it is correct.Any help is much appreciatedThanks Peter Edited March 3, 201214 yr by Petermuc3 Peter Win10/64/32,0GB, [email protected], Gigabyte 1080ti, P3Dv5.1
March 3, 201214 yr Peter,Did you download a fresh copy of NGX?What folder/path is FSX installed in on your Win7-64? Best Regards, Vaughan Martell PP-ASEL KDTW
March 3, 201214 yr Author Vaughan,I had saved the original NGX RTMs on an external drive; that should not be a problem. There might be something fundamentally wrong as the JS41 does not install correctly either, blank instruments. FSX is on D.ThanksPeterOh, one thing, when installing a scenery I had incidentally reinstalled FSX SP1; maybe there is a problem for the PMDGs, everything else is running.

March 3, 201214 yr Do you mean after having installed sp2 you reran the sp1 installer? Kenneth Weir My Saitek yoke mod i7 2600k @ 4.7 8GB Gskill CAS7 2x GTX580 SLI Surround + GT520 Accessory Win7x64
March 3, 201214 yr Author Correct, unfortunatelly I thought it was an update for the scenery, too stupid. Can I just uninstall and reinstall Sp1 and SP2?Peter Peter Win10/64/32,0GB, [email protected], Gigabyte 1080ti, P3Dv5.1
March 3, 201214 yr Peter,Are you going to uninstall and start over? Edited March 3, 201214 yr by vonmar Best Regards, Vaughan Martell PP-ASEL KDTW
March 3, 201214 yr Author No, if I can avoid it. My question was can I uninstall FSX SP1 and SP2 and reinstall without harm?Peter Peter Win10/64/32,0GB, [email protected], Gigabyte 1080ti, P3Dv5.1
March 3, 201214 yr Peter,IMO ... start over.All purchased (not just PMDG) addons must be installed in the correct order.You have to make a list.Install FSX + its SDKsInstall Apps that install with FSXInstall FSX SP1Install Apps that install with FSX Sp2Install FSX XXetc.Also, all addon SPs need to be installed i the correct order.

March 3, 201214 yr I'd send PMDG an email on this one. It's probably a weird activation issue that they could help with via email but not the forum.-stefan
March 3, 201214 yr Author I have a strange dll (dll.xml.orig) in the same folder fsx.cfg and dll.xml are. Never noticed that before. Peter Win10/64/32,0GB, [email protected], Gigabyte 1080ti, P3Dv5.1
March 3, 201214 yr I have a strange dll (dll.xml.orig) in the same folder fsx.cfg and dll.xml are. Never noticed that before.That was a copy put there by an app you installed ... check the date.Are you going to start over? Best Regards, Vaughan Martell PP-ASEL KDTW
