April 11, 201610 yr When I tried to start FSX tonight, the "Current Aircraft" did not show in the Free Flight, Preview Screen (default C172). All the menu screens appear to be working. When I go to the cockpit view in VC I get an enlarged view that will not shrink. In the 2d view I get the main panel, but no real outside view of the outside scenery. The aircraft does not show in the "spot" view. I have deleted the fsx.cfg and let it rebuild, but there was no change. The only change since my last flight was updating PFPX. I haven't tried updating the driver since it has been flawless so far. I'm running FSX SP2 with Win7-64 with video driver 353.62. blaustern I Earned My Spurs in Vietnam
April 11, 201610 yr Administrators Current aircraft (C172) would be the aircraft you chose for your default flight. Are you starting your default flight? What happens if you choose another aircraft and another airport? You may need to delete everything after SITUATION= that is under [uSERINERFACE] in your FSX.cfg. That should let you recreate your default flight. Charlie AronAVSIM Board of Directors-ADMIN/Moderator-RegistrarJust going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer.

April 12, 201610 yr Author I am not trying to recreate my default flight. I am trying to to get any aircraft to show up. I have tried letting FSX rebuild the fsx.cfg file, but that does not make any difference. balustern I Earned My Spurs in Vietnam
April 12, 201610 yr Administrators OK, so ANY aircraft that is chosen will not show up spinning in the Preview Window? Is the Window blank or Black? If it's blank, I have only seen that Repair Option has been the fix. Probably not the most fun thing to have to do.

April 12, 201610 yr Try deleting Your *.cfg File, and then Reboot FSX, and let it Rebuild Your Config File - Johnman B)
April 12, 201610 yr Author I have done the *.cfg and the repair. Since I have done the repair, FSX crashes on startup. I get the Faulting Module Path:D:\FSX\simprop.dll. I have also reinstalled SP1 and tried the replaced UIAutomationCore.dll. blaustern I Earned My Spurs in Vietnam
April 12, 201610 yr When I have the same issue in FS9, I press CTRL+ENTER...this command changes the screen from full screen to windowed mode. Not sure if it works, but worth a try. Nick
April 12, 201610 yr Administrators Did you uninstall both SP1 and SP2 BEFORE doing the Repair Option?

April 12, 201610 yr Author No, but I got it going once i installed SP2. Not sure what or where the problem was? I did not uninstall anything. I now need to go back and install my latest NI settings after the driver change. Thanks for the input. blaustern I Earned My Spurs in Vietnam
