Stupid question

Featured Replies

I know that this question has been asked and answered a thousand times, but I cannot find the thread. On starting FS2 CREW I keep getting the message "warning SDK failed to load" I only purchased FS2 CREW recently and PMDG so I assume I have SPIc FYI: I am disabled and in a wheelchair and 63. I suppose all that combined makes me a thicko for these procedures, so therefore in anyone is interested I am prepared to pay £500 to someone to help me to set up and fly PMDG, FS2 CREW button version. I live in London and can accommodate if required.

Did you start from the 2D view first?

Did you install SP2 as administrator? Rightclick sp2 -> run as administrator?

yes Jude I did start from the vc, no I did not run SP2 as admin . What SP2 are you referring to, I only installed SPIc from a link on AVIM. We are from the same country although I now live in London but originally from 10 miles north of EINN

many thanks

Hello Patrick, Nice to know you.

 

Sorry, I meant SP1C of course.

As Bryan stated.

Open the file below with Notepad.

    Microsoft Flight Simulator X\PMDG\PMDG 737 NGX\737NGX_Options.ini


Add these two lines if they are not present in that file:

[sDK]
EnableDataBroadcast=1

 Then save the file.

Also check if you are running FSX as admin too.
