Hi Kyle I try to follow all the steps required in the PMDG weather radar troubleshooting page: - The latest update of my 737NGX (SP1d v1.10.64611) - The latest version of ASN (SP2C update B5589) - The latest version of FSUIPC4 (4.939u) - The settings of FSX as required but there is still no weather radar in my 737 (as it works fine with the 777). In fact, when I press the WXR button on the EFIS, nothing happens in the PFD, no mention about the WXR... The only thing, perhaps, is that I haven't uninstalled the previous version of 737 before installing the new one (I never do that !!). Do I have to reinstall the version ? In that case, how do I uninstall the 737 ? Thanks Pierre Boileau LFRS

Hi Thanks to Bryan my problem is solved. The way to get this result : - Manually delete the fs2crew777 folder locating in "appdata." - Delete the fs2crew 777 folder in the main fsx folder. It's located in the fs2crew2010 folder. - Reinstall fs2crew with admin rights - Re activate the product via the fs2crew 777 config manager (name, e-mail, order ..) Then run fsx, it should be OK Pierre

Hi Bryan Yes, affirmative, it says v1.3 I don't understand what you mean "double check your audio setup" : my HP work fine, and when i use a headset, connected to the hp, it's the same. I've tried all the audio settings in the cfg sub panel, with the same results. Pierre

Hi, In fact I am in the same situation with the same problem, except I use the Button Control and not the Voice control, (and I don't undestand what means "please follow the sound thread") !. I can't run any procedure or checklist when I press the Main Button, I have no capt's voice and no action. I'm stuck on the Pre Flight Checklist. If I run the Pre Flight Events routine, everything works fine until T+15' when it's time to run the Pre Flight Checklist. With the arrow on the right side of the Main Panel, after OXYGEN TESTED 100%, I access the following questions of the checklist by pressing the Main Button, but without any voice to validate the responses, then I'm stuck again when arriving at the Before Start procedure, there is no way to make it run. Some additional details : -The main and secondary buttons are set correctly, they work fine with my FS2Crew 737NGX -By Pressing the AUDIO button on the Main Panel I have the correct sounds on HP left and right -FS2Crew is well in the panel.cfg -On The Main Panel the HS button is ON -The CFG button is set -As I bought 777 FS2Crew on January 30th, I have installed the product 3 times to access the actual v1.3 !! Thank you for your help Pierre Boileau LFRS

Hi, the problem is that The Basic Configuration Guide, has nothing in common with the Hardware and Software Guide which gave many informations about the hardware and software environment for fsx, and their evolution. The last date of issue I know was Feb 19, 2014, v.1.0.5.1. Is there a new version somewhere ? Thanks Pierre Boileau

OK, that's fine, many thanks Keith and Graham. The lesson is that it's not a good idea to change the settings in AS2012 when FSX is running ... Have a nice day

I'm sorry Graham, but I don't know how to do that, where are these backup textures in AS 2012 ...

As, now, the problem is the same without AS2012, I haven't change anything on AS !

Flying the PMDG 737NGX with HI FI AS2012 to handle the weather, as always, I tried to change the 3D Clouds setting in AS2012 and to modify the weather settings : the FPS dropped down to 5, and the sky became grey, as I was at FL390 ! I supposed there was something wrong in AS2012 and stopped both, FSX and AS2012. Launching FSX again without AS, the sky is still grey, even if I select the fine weather in FSX weather, the blue sky has disappeared. I tried to delete the FSX.cfg but the new one doesn't improve the situation. Does any one have an idea about that kind of problem, and where can it be fixed ? ? Thanks Pierre

I've tried once again to repair FSX but without any success, so I've decided to uninstall then reinstall everything. The weather being so sad, it's now or never, watching Olympics games. Thanks to all Pierre Boileau

I'll wait till tomorrow to see if it's possible to get the plane back, if not, I'll try to repair with the FSX DVD, even if my last try with it, a few monthes ago, was a failure

No, I can't fly the free flght because the free flight screen freezes after a while, or when I press the Start button, like previously. I've noticed that the default flight was changed in the free flight screen, but I didn't pay attention to that. Now, I'm quite sure that changing the fsx.cfg file would have fixed my problem, except that the default flight can't be launched because the plane (the ulm) is deleted !!

Hi, I've repaired the PMDG 747 with the 747.exe file, but no changes By the way, I've noticed a problem : Subsequently to the creation of a new fsx.cfg, the free flight which appears when I launch FSX isn't my default flight with cessna 172/Seattle, but a default flight of Microsoft, with an Aircreation ULM Tricycle/Friday harbor. The problem is that I've deleted this airplane, with some others I know I would not use, a day I was looking for some more place on my HDD ! It's certainly the reason why the ulm doesn't move in the free flight screen, and why I can't change the airplane. As this ulm has definitly disappeared, how can I change the default flight, or find a new file of this ulm ?

Thanks to all, I'll try these advices tomorrow and will come back to give you the results Pierre Boileau

Howard, you're right, I've never done a restore before, and I've never prevented Windows from making a restore point. In fact, sometimes I've restored some files from my Norton Ghost, but restoring all FSX I'm a bit afraid of the result. I use W7 64 bits Pierre
