Thank you for sending me the logs. Your copy of FSUIPC5 is not registered (no key provided). Without it LINDA and FSUIPC will not communicate.

Are you saying the reg key should be in the fsuipc installation folder?

[ScotFlieger 280]

My apologies, your FSUIPC is showing as registered. My error. However, the MCP is not being found on COM0, COM1 or COM4. Normally, it is on COM3. Open Windows Device Manager and look for COM ports. Check Properties to see which it is on. This port need to edited in fsuipc5.ini and entered in LINDA Setup.

I open Device Manager and COM ports is not in the list

 

[ScotFlieger 280]

Do you have VRSim.exe installed? It should give you the COM Port number.

Check your hardware connections and try a different USB socket.

I downloaded VRsim.exe and ran it. It has MCP-II port:COM3. 

I opened the Setup MCP Combo And changed to com port= COM3 and pressed 'Make changes for you,

I started the sim again and loaded the pmdg737 and nothing works on the vrinsight  mcp

If FSUIPC is still not seeing the MCP it is possible Windows is turning off power to the USB port. You will need to disable power management for that port. See the LINDA Support post on power Management.
