Danny are you still having install problems? The product does work. Have you tried deleting all versions and redownload PMDG that your using. I think I had this error but cannot remember what I did. I thought it was a dll file. Not sure. I would re buy and PMDg product if the next version was for 64bit P3D. A game that will use more than one core and more than 8gb or Ram, hell yeah!!!. I am using 6700k skylake and 32 of ddr4 ram with an old GTX 970 card soon to be GTX 1080. I am getting at payware airports 25-35 fps inside the cockpit and outside 45-60 depending on the scenery. Not bad for me , as I went back to playing the sim again as it is worthwhile now

I did, thank you

Ok thanks for not answering the question.

I am getting a catastopic failure code when trying to install Pmdg 737NGX Error Code: -5011 : 0x8000ffff Error Information: >Kernel\ObjectWrapper.cpp (498) >Kernel\IScriptWrapper.cpp (81) >Kernel\ObjectWrapper.cpp (197) >Kernel\IScriptWrapper.cpp (81) >SetupNew\SetupDLL.cpp (510) PAPP:PMDG 737 8900 NGX PVENDOR:PMDG Simulations, LLC.

Well when you think about it FSX when it came out for the deluxe version was about 70 dollars. I paid for the academic for prepar3d as not to go thru month to month payment. I would hope the fee for the pmdg products for p3rd will not be too much as the ifly 737 for p3rd is 70 dollars. Most devs re released thier add ons for that platform for free. I know...what!!! This is a very good company (pmdg) so for a small upgrade fee for a great product(s) would be fine for me...just hurry up as I cannot fly p3rd until pmdg converts

Using fsupic and adding settings for joystick commands thru it works. I have prepar3d v 2.4 and no issues with it using joystick thru the flight sim and not fsupic. Will use fsupic anyway for joystick commands anyway, such a nice feature.

What is special descent? What airport or airports are you at? Out of memory or oom is from fsx running as a 32 bit software and fsx not able to make use of no more than 3 or 4 ram. It is a fsx issue. You can research tweaks and fixes. I find mixed results about tweaks. There is not much you can really do. High end payware airports and planes use a lot or ram. I hope you find a more of an answer. I am looking into x plane as it is a 64 bit and uses all ram you have

I see after my above post someone mention they are using PMDG 777X in Prepardv2. I thought this was not so according to PMDG website. Did things changed and I missed the boat? Any feedback please.

I see the debate continues. You have very loyal people to FSX and people who are tired of FSX and looking for something new because of the limitations of FSX. I have to agree that FSX got us going when it came out but Microsoft left us hanging by not developing a new version to go along with 64 bit OS. I think we all can agree we feel a little short changed when it comes to that. I think if we did not get OOM messages this debate does not happen as we would demand more add-ons, more planes, more.... and more. It is nice that X-Plane is 64 bit but has enough testing been done to see if there are any bugs? It has been out for awhile and still not a lot of add-ons, pay ware anyway. Is it time for a new Flight sim? Yes, but what will it be?who will it be? Will it be easy for Devs to make add-ons for? I like the what X-plane has to offer as a 64 bit program and be able to use all my Ram and hardware but at closer look it does not look any better than FS2004 as far as graphics in my opinion. Also what about A.I traffic. I see it comes with traffic but a lot of old liveries. What about moving jetways? Will it be AES? How much more money are we willing to spend to buy add-ons we already have for a new platform? How long will we wait for the products to become available for the new engine? X-plane 10 has been out awhile and not a lot of add on product support for it right now. I think the way to go is Prepa3d. I think it has great potential but still limited to 32 bit and single core platform. It would be nice would give the Entertaining license to Lockheed and Lockheed wanted to recode the FSX engine. I do not know or have the answer so I guess will we have to wait and see what happens. As far me if anything I would love to see the new planes being develop. I would love to see 787.A350 and A380. I wish enough info was out for the 737MAx and 777X. I know after this post the debate will continue and this is just my opinion. Whatever your loyalties lie just enjoy your product the best way you can because right now that is all we can do. Vincent

Go into fsuipc. move your yoke for aileron. Now if you set it before and you had "send toFS as normal axis" ticked. Untick it. Move your yoke for aileron again except this time tick "send toFsuipc calibration. Check the first box and scroll down to Alieron. While still in Fsuipc go to joystick and move your yoke you shoud lsee movement there under the ailerons.Make sure you have a profile in fsuioc to save it in. Now when you exit back into FS you should move your yoke and see the ailerons move with the PMDG 777. Do the same for rudder if you are having problems there. I have the Saitek yoke and rudder pedals. Hope this helps. By doing this I no longer have joystick disappearing in windows 8.

I do have it and yes it is paid version. Not quite sure how to do it. Can you help?

I want to ask all who are having this issue. Are you running fsx in windowed mode? What graphics card are you using? If in windowed mode, do you have multi monitor setups? Are you placing FMC, REX..etc on the other monitors if so are you clicking on other windows outside of FSX while playing. I discovered that clicking on other windows in fsx in windowed mode my joystick goes out. control ALt Delete helps sometimes but not a great fix. I am trying to test in FSX while in full screen mode. I am running ati driver 13.4. Will try an older version and see if that works. For some reason in windows 8 my task bar is on all 3 screens, not like that in windows 7. I thinking this issue is a multi display mode while in FSX windowed mode. My guess. Any thoughts? Sure would like to solve this problem.

Could we see the 737 Max in the future?

I hope you firgured this out by now but if not here goes. The afcads are in a different folder. If you look in the airport files itself like rjgg you will see no afcad. The utlity does not put it there for some reason. To find it and I cannot remember right now as my gaming pc is off. In the c:programs86 there should be a simmer's sky folder. Inside there you will see the airports you installed and the afcads are there. Just copy into the correct folders where the airports are installed in the scenery folder and your done. Hope this helpsVincent

Just one more note. I used world of a.i for traffic and it wored well. I just copied the simobjects/airplanes..world of ai planes into the prepar3d. Copy the traffic bgl files into Prepar3d and bam. A.I traffic.
