I am using Windows 7 x64 Home Premium. At the moment I am researching the Error 740 code, but I am not finding any straight forward threads. I will be scouring the FSUIPC support forums over the next few days. I will let you know what I come up with.

Not sure why auto start is not working. It is loading and functional via manual starting. I am out of options it appears so I will just be happy it runs manually. Thanks for all the help. Quickest support help I have ever gotten. Tom

Did not change anything. Sorry. Should the Opus options be available in the addons tab in FSX? I am assuming yes.

I used NotePad to paste the code into then saved it as exe.xml. I reinstalled to the C drive earlier hence the change to the path.

Ok at this point I am just happy it works manually. Would be nice to take advantage of autostart but for some weird reason my system is not allowing it. I even tried repairing and finally an uninstall/reinstall to the C: drive with no joy. So to all that helped me out today a big thank you for all the quick responses.

I created the exe.xml file and placed it in the same folder as the fsx.cfg file. Started FSX, accepted FSXSERVER.EXE as trusted and loaded my flight...NOTHING. The only way I can get the Opus FSI Server window or the FSXTRACKIR5.exe window or the addon tab options for Opus is to manually start the program.

JJM, Tried that still isn't auto starting. Here is a screeny of my FSUIPC4 cfg (Registered version)... and this one is from the FSUIPC txt doc Well there is obviously something I am not doing quite right here. ***Tried running with just the READY function in FSUIPC.cfg and after the flight loads I hear a system "ding" tone then nothing else happens. Upon closing out and checking the FSUIPC txt doc again there is the ERROR 740 code.

The plot thickens so off I go.... <_< Be back when I get it fixed

Ok where is this file located? It is not in C:\User\"Me"\AppData\Microsoft\FSX folder

Oddly enough there are no OpusFSX entries in the Trusted Section of my fsx.cfg file. Neither am I asked to run any from OpusFSX upon FSX start up. (I have FSX on its own partition of my secondary HDD labelled D: drive. but that should not make a difference with any of this as all paths are correct for all software involved.) And as stated above OpusFSX runs great if started manually. Some might say "well if it runs fine manually why bother with auto start." My answer is because it won't when it should and I just can't have that. :huh: Cheryl, I run TrackIR5 on system start up so it is always the first thing loaded up. :wink:

Cheryl, Thanks for the quick response. Yes OpusFSX runs just fine manually. I did run it once before setting up the auto start and trusted the OpusFSX prompts so I will go through the fsx.cfg and delete those and try that. I forgot to mention that I am running TrackIR5. As a side note TIR5 is running perfectly fine within the FSX/Opus environment. So not sure that should be causing an auto start issue. I will post back when I delete those cfg entries and restart FSX. Tom

I have read through the manuals and searched the forums for an answer to this but couldn't come up with anything. I followed the instructions in the setup guide to have OpusFSX Autostart but it does not work for me. I am sure there is something I have missed but cannot figure it out. I opened the dll file located in C:\"user"'\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX and added the required entries.... also note I changed the drive from c to d which is where FSX and Opus are installed Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Thanks. Tom
