Ed I did the following but it crashes when I load the C172 with Mindstar GNS, switch to another aircraft without it and click on Fly Now. I ran the installer 2X and rebooted the PC. I set up my default flight to use the default C172SP Skyhawk. click Fly Now, end flight. Choose C172SP Skyhawk GNS, click Fly Now, end flight, choose default C172SP Skyhawk, click Fly Now. end flight --> ok Choose C172SP Skyhawk GNS, click Fly Now, end flight, choose default C172SP Skyhawk. end flight --> ok Choose C172SP Skyhawk GNS, click Fly Now, Bring up GNS panel and end flight with panel up. Choose default C172SP Skyhawk.--> crash Choose C172SP Skyhawk GNS, click Fly Now, Bring up GNS panel, close panel and end flight. Choose default C172SP Skyhawk.--> crash

I tried the new installer but I am still having the issue.

When I switch to an aircraft that does not have Mindstar GNS 430/530 installed from one that does, FSX crashes. I have seen on forums that this is a known issue. Is there an ETA when this will be fixed or is there a work around? Right now I am stuck. My default aircraft has GNS 430 installed so I cannot switch to another aircraft to make that the default. Any help will be appreciated.

Ed one more question. When I bring up pop-up window, the GNS430 display goes blank on the panel. It behaves the same on the VC and the 2D panel. When I close the pop-up it reappears. It seems that the gps will only display on one window at a time. The VC instance is 1, the pop-up instance is 2 and the 2D panel instance is 3. Is this expected behaviour? Rob

I figured it out. I needed to change the instance of the pop up to 2.

Ed I did receive an email back from support stating this. I understand that Mindstar only adds a pop-up. I have been able to add the GNS430 into a panel but having an issue with adding a pop-up. I used the same configuration that was added to the C172 but when I lick on the pop-up, it crashes. Is there any way to determine what is causing this?

I purchased GNS 430/530 Simulation and I do not see it appear on the panel of the C172 Minsdstar version. I do see it as a pop up window under Views à Instrument Panel à GNS Panel. I would expect it to be on the instrument panel as well. Is it supposed to be on the panel or just as a pop-up? Do I need to set it in the panel myself or is it supposed to be in the panel after installation.
