  • @whisky , v5.0? Really? The latest is v5.4. Suggest you update. The filename is prepar3d.cfg located here C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5

  • Ooops. Thanks for the correction. Dave

Thanks Ray,

I have been using the manual start in this bird for a few years. I never use hotkeys.

Also Navigraph data does not load. (Common in all Carenado products) The so called fix doesn't work, so not a real IFR machine.

I was a Commercial pilot in years gone by, twin IFR rating. The Saab is one of my favorites because it is almost study level. My other go to is PMDG Boeings and MJC Dash 8.

Thanks for your help

@whisky , you didn’t say if those instructions helped. If the engines didn’t start but did previously what has changed on your system? Why not try hot keys just to test that option.

As Dave alluded to if no one else has the problem then it has to be something on your setup.

The Navigraph situation is different to the engines. I don’t believe your mental state is connected to this problem since your posts are quite coherent.

Hello!
I apologize for interrupting, but having carefully followed all of @whisky topics (including previous ones), I am increasingly inclined to conclude that the main problem lies in the operating system. Although I may be mistaken. What I would do in such a situation...

  1. I would check Windows for file system integrity, run several tests to make sure my OS is fine.

  2. If the OS is fine, install P3D5 and run it in default mode. Verify that the simulator and default aircraft work exactly as intended by the developer.

  3. And only after making sure that both software products are fine, I would proceed to installing add‑ons. One at a time, with mandatory testing of each add‑on for proper functionality.

In my opinion, only this way everything can be debugged. There must be a clear sequence, not chaotic attempts to fix something.

At last Sergey, you have suggested the almighty Microsoft OS could be the problem. YAY

I have followed up on every suggestion for a fix, to no avail.

Even as I write this AI is preempting with suggestions. I have been simming since 1st version and I have never encountered issues like I have since installing latest OS. (Copilot just deleted)

I am now installing Prep3d on an old PC to prove a point. Will let you know the result in due coarse.
