Hi Phil; just done a test reinstall:-

Ran the "rxpGTN-750-XPL.exe" 

Went through the Flight1 activation process.

The set-up program started, showing which flight sim ( xp12, xp11,xp10,xp9 ) I was installing to.

clicked on xp12. 

next screen  ... Select X-Plane Path

It found the path to where I had installed Xplane 12 ....... ie C\:X-Plane12  ( did'nt need to browse )

clicked next

Next screen .........Ready to Install then clicked again to install.

Looks like you just need to get the correct path to the installation of X-Plane 12

 

regards bob

Hi Phil, during the installation of the RXP750 it goes through the process of installing the Garmin Trainer (from garmin) as the RXP wont work without it, The Garmin software installs itself into c:\Program Data.

can't understand why it's coming up with the path of c:\n, 

Have you installed xplane12 on the c:\ drive and do you have xplane11 installed as well on the c:\ drive if so as both x-plane.exe files have the same name that may be the reason in cant find the correct path, also you may not need to install the garmin trainer if you have it already with xplane11.

Hi Phil, The Garmin Trainer software needs to be installed in the 'Program Data' folder on the C:\ Drive, Xplane 12 can be install on any drive you choose as you have done.

The Reality 750GTN software installs into Xplane

If you already have the Trainer software then you don't need to re-install it , if its not already on your system then just let it install it self    ...... ie you dont need to browse.

You can check for the application by looking in the start menu for 'Garmin Aviation Trainers'

I have in running ok and the ver's are :-

Garmin Trainer  ....SW 6.62.4 Traing

Reality XP     .....  2.5.30

You can get the Trainer Software from here :-  http://download.garmin.com/avtrainer/gtn/6.62.4.0/GTN.Setup.msi

Run as admin
