Thanks for the feedback..... How do you have the lights chosen (what settings do you have in UTX and in Orbx Central)?

I have FTX Global and several ORBX Regions (PNW, Central Rockies, Northern California). I'm sure that UTX adds a lot to the non ORBX regions (I used to use GE and UT together in my FS2004 setup and they were great). I'm wanting to improve the roads, coastlines certain LC areas where I do a lot of my flying in central California (a non-ORBX region) and into northern California (an ORBX region) so I'm leaning to installing UTX into my setup (I know I will need to make some choice between the Orbx lights and UTX lights). How will UTX and the ORBX Northern California region work together (since ORBX regions DO HAVE custom Vector and LC built into them)????? Mike

Hi Stan, Well..... did you get your system? I've had mine now since last Saturday and it is up and running great! Since I've only been using my FS2004 WinXP computer up until this one arrived (and hadn't been following the forums, eg. AVSIM, Flightsim, etc., like I used to) I spent much of the previous weeks reading up on Win 7 operation, FSX issues and the sceneries, planes, utilities, etc., to choose. I spoke with Ken at Jetline last Monday before purchasing any new flight related software to install on this new rig. He was VERY helpful. Here is what I've added so far: 1) ORBX - FTX Global Base; FTX Pacific Northwest; FTX NA Gold Northern California; FTX NA Gold Central Rocky Mountains; Packs 1-9 of their (freeware) North American airports **NOTE:(Ken advised me not to add any new mesh and landclass scenery, like FSGenesis and UTX, at this time. He said that I should wait for awhile and then get FTX Global Vector and Open/LC once released (and patched)) 2) ZINERTEK - Zinertek Natural Tree Environment (I researched this one..Ken didn't mention it). It improved on the already great trees in ORBX .... by more closely adding the correct type/and variety of trees in all geographic areas ... and... the fall colors are simply spectacular! 3) REX - REX4 Texture Direct 4) ACTIVE SKY - NEXT 5) ULTIMATE TRAFFIC 2 My next chore is to decide on which add on airports to choose. I will pick from: FlightBeam; FSDT; FlyTampa; Imaginesim.... Do you (or any other readers out there) have any additional suggestions for scenery, airports, planes, utilities? Mike

Just filled in my PROFILE.... Mike

Thanks Jim... I was one of the long term holdouts from porting over to FSX from FS 2004 since I had that computer and software tweaked to (at that time) perfection. I'm loving this new setup from Greg and Ken at Jet Line. I've been doing the flight sim stuff since FS 4.0 in the late 1980's and have progressively updated my hardware to keep up with the newest version of the software. I'm a 64 years "young" retired Naval Officer and retired Pediatric Dentist (since 2001). In 2011 I earned my private pilot's license and fly a C172SP (steam gauges) and C172SP G1000 from an FBO in San Luis Obispo, CA (along the Central CA coast midway between LA and SF. Please advise how to find my profile so that I may enter that info that you mentioned. ~ best, Mike Thanks Ron..... Mike

To all: PROBLEM SOLVED (YEA!!!) The looping of the security warning screens actually was what should have happened. I started to notice that each time I clicked on the first screen it was showing a new GAU number under "NAME." So... I just kept on doing this clicking and finally the screens stopped popping up and the Citation X appeared in my flight in place of the previous aircraft. Apparently, there are a large number of GAU files associated with that Citation X that needed to be "Trusted." I want to thank you all for trying to help me with this pesky problem. The answer was right in front of me in my initial posting here when I mentioned the discrepancy between the GAU 11 and GAU 12 on both screens. Lessons learned!!!!! Mike

So.... how do I uninstall the program (for the Citation X plane) since it doesn't show up in the programs folder .... so that I can reinstall it as you've advised?

Did some checking in control panel and I AM showing as the "Administrator." Just went to the installation program for the Cit X and right clicked and chose "Run as Administrator." However, the screen that pops up (the Eaglesoft Development Group Citation X 1.0 FSX Install Program) doesn't give me the option to repair or remove. Only shows "Next" or "Exit." Pushing next brings up the license screen prompting me to "agree." The next screen shows the installation path....and the last screen prompts me to "start" the install.

Good morning to you too: I had checked that yesterday when I first started to have this problem. There is no entry showing Eaglesoft in the "Programs and Features" setting under "Uninstall or change a program" Also in post #9 above Jim is telling me that the problem isn't with the Citation X plane (so he implies that removing the plane isn't the thing to do). Mike

Good morning Jim, UAC was set to off, as was Windows defender, etc., by the folks at Jetline Systems before they even sent me the new computer. I also knew about the need to do these things and checked those settings as soon as I received the computer. Concerning your comment (above) about "Just click okay and continue on" ....when I first got that security message I did click "Run" in the first screen and "YES" (ok to load this software). That is when the loop started where these two screens just keep popping back up.

I've also searched for "how to uninstall aircraft from fsx" thinking that removing the Citation X and re-installing it may help. There is no uninstall program in the Eaglesoft folder. Some have said to just remove that Citation X folder from FSX (but cautioned that the install may have placed other files elsewhere in FSX)

I'm searching for the fsx.exe file. Can you help me find it?

I didn't install FSX. The folks at Jetline Systems installed it as they've done for most of their customers. They know all of the things to tweak during FSX installation and what Win 7 programs to disable, eg. UAC, etc. I assume that I am "admin." Please explain how I check this, and how to proceed.

Good evening to all: Today I've added scenery, texture, weather generating, and traffic programs (ORBX FTX GLOBAL, FTX PNW, etc., REX4 Texture Direct, Active Sky Next and Ultimate Traffic 2) to my new Jetline Computer running Win7 64.. All installs have gone smoothly, and I've started FSX and flown a bit after I loaded each program. It was super! Then.... I installed the FSX version of Eaglesoft Citation X 750 and it seemed to install fine to the proper folder in FSX and the plane does show up in the aircraft selection window. Here is the problem: When I try to select any of the 4 versions of that plane a small window pops up saying "Microsoft Flight Simulator - Security . The publisher could not be verified. Are you sure you want to run this software? NAME: cxcaws11.GAU PUBLISHER: Unknown publisher. "This file does not have a valid digital signature that verifies its publisher. You should only run software from a publisher that you trust" I then have the choice to RUN or DON'T RUN. When I click on either of these buttons another small window opens and the first window closes. The new window says, "Would you like to designate this module (C:\Program files (x86) \ Microsoft...\ cxcaws12.GAU) as "Trusted" software? Select YES to automatically load this software whenever you start Flight Simulator. Select NO to load this software for this session only." Regardless which button (YES or NO) I choose, this window goes away and the first window opens again with the previous message. If I click on either the RUN or DON'T RUN the second window reopens. It is an endless repeating loop! (notice also that in the first window it shows the gauge as "cxcaws11.GAU" and in the second window it shows the gauge as "cxcaws12.GAU) Bottom line >>>> WHAT CAN / SHOULD I DO TO FIX THIS ISSUE?\ Thanks in advance for your help on this. Mike

Curious as to what sort of problem you had? Bought this one thru Amazon: http://www.apc.com/products/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=BR1000G&total_watts=200
