FSX-SE Undeerstanding Error Message

Just when I was really enjoying flying around, the screen went dim and then noticed the power supply to the laptop was cold.  So the PS must be bad and will have to wait until tomorrow to call support to see if they will ship me a new one since still under warranty.  Anyway it is still a Merry Christmas, I have a lot to be thankful for.

Unbelievable luck Carl!  Hopefully you can get it fixed soon.

Best regards,

Well Jim, being a retired EE I decided to take a closer look in side the  PS and low and behold there was a loose wire.  Just had to tighten it up and off we go.  Boy at first was I disappointed.  All is well once again.

I was going to mention it might be an internal problem as it is rare for a power supply to kick the bucket.  It's good to hear you finally got to use your EE skills.  LOL.  Just kidding.  Being an EE is quite an accomplishment!  Glad you have the laptop working again.

Best regards,

Jim
