Try dragging the edges of the small window to resize it to the equivalent of its maximized size rather than maximizing it. That may result in FSX saving the size in the FSX.cfg file. Rick

After a cumulative update from Microsoft (I forced a check for updates), my Saitek devices and my dual monitor setup seem better behaved. I wonder if the throttle quadrant issue (I did not have this problem) will also be alleviated? Rick

Thanks. I will try it. Rick

Here: http://fsgs.com/ I'm having some panels response issues after 10-15 minutes, though, but the joystick does NOT disconnect. Still some USB issues to sort out, I guess. Edit: Loss of response may be a SPAD.neXt issue -- same flight was fine with SPAD driver.

This has been stated in a lot of places but I'm not sure it is true. There is a setting that supposedly turns off automatic device driver updates, in my Win 10 Pro anyway -- right-click the start button and select System/Advanced System Settings/Hardware tab/Device Installation Settings. I guess only time will tell how effective this setting is. Rick

Most but not all of the entries I saw had the EnhancedPowerManagement entries and those were the only ones I edited. I did not touch any that did not already have this entry. The Twitter post from Saitek does not specify which products they are looking at. I use SPAD or SPAD.neXt drivers for panels. Rick

I experienced no display on the Saitek Multipanel after upgrading and I found a "fix" from Microsoft that applied to Windows 8.1 -- I recall having the problem in Win 8.1 too. Anyway, after editing the Registry for all HID input devices and rebooting, my Multipanel display returned as it did in Win 8.1. http://forum.avsim.net/topic/424250-saitek-multipanel-display-not-working-with-windows-81/ http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2900614

Excellent!! Seems to do the job nicely after a quick test!! Thanks, again. Rick

Thanks for posting the link to your test files, Bad_T. I tried them and the area is indeed nicely flattened so perhaps this might help the OP, too. I do see what appears to be some odd mesh or ground textures showing in some spots but I'm guessing this is as good as it can be without the originator's terrain installed. Mine is default FSX. Thanks, again. Rick

Bryan, I would be interested in hearing how you make out with ADE and elevation adjustment. I installed and experimented with this after I saw your first post but I had limited success after a first attempt to change the altitude of the entire airport. I could still see a lot of sunken areas and buildings and I thought perhaps it was the original scenery design that was intended for Ultimate Terrain that was causing the issue with default mesh. If you are successful, I would like to try your changed .BGL files. Thanks. Regards, Rick

Sounds like you have installed the SPs before activating FSX which may be incorrect. I believe current recommendations suggest that you should be running and activating FSX before installing SPs, and they should be installed one-at-a-time while running FSX between each install?? Rick

Try lowering the prop_tc= value in the Propeller section of the Aircraft.cfg file. I lowered one from 0.1 to 0.006 for example to reduce this kind of movement in the VC (in FSX). Rick

Have a look at http://forum.avsim.net/topic/423937-help-after-win-81-installation-no-dx10-checkbox/ as a possible solution?

Interesting.... I never needed the uiautomationcore fix in Windows 7 64-bit but FSX almost immediately CTDed, pointing to this .DLL when I upgraded to Windows 8 64-bit. So, I put the so-called "correct" version in the FSX root folder and I have not noticed any problems. I wonder where the incompatibility report originates? Rick
