PMDG 777 Aircraft loads up dead, no activation window, no landing gear!

Featured Replies

Hey all,

 

I have been faced with this issue since I purchased the PMDG 777-200LR, I recently purchased the 777-300ER and still am experiencing the problem/bug. Its often a 50/50 whether the aircraft will load up properly (meaning everything working, and in a default panel state.) If it doesn't load up properly "load up dead as you guys state at PMDG" I need to restart FSX and hope it works on the second attempt. I have followed the instructions of this PMDG fix: http://support.precisionmanuals.com/kb/a110/aircraft-loads-up-dead-no-activation-window-no-landing-gear-simconnect-issue.aspx without any success. 

The real pain with this isn't so much when I am starting a flight its more of a pain when I am using FSIPANEL and practicing an approach. It will work ONCE, and when I reload the approach lets say 8NM out from the runway the aircraft loads dead... Its a waste of time! I am little frustrated, maybe I have done something wrong I have tried the simconnect fix.  Same problem as this person.

Thanks in advance,

Gavin Boothroyd

This might be a better spot for your PMDG 777 question.  Maybe someone there has had the

same experience.

Just going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱
Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!

Hi, try adding the cfq HIGHMEMFIX=1 under youre [graphics] section. had the same problem. Try this and ser what happens. Let me know it that works

This can be caused by a corrupted install caused by your antivirus software. Same happened to me with QOTS2. Uninstall and reinstall again with antivirus disabled and ensure you have administrator rights

If FSX SE that is irrelevant.... only boxed....I I do believe that during installation might be something corrupted however, FSIPANEL might cause that as well....But it says clearly that you should run SimConnect and all should be ran....

Are hou using the boxed version? If yes, try it. If not, try reinstalling every thing.
