Greetings, I have just recently acquired the GNS430/530 and I'm new to the Mindstar family. I have this burning question that I can't seem to find the answer for. Will I be notified when its time to update my quarterly data cycle for my the home license version, or will it be updated automatically, or shall I just try to update it when I think its time, or what? Oh, and by the way, are there any known conflict issues with having RealNav for Mindstar, and the NavData for X-plane on the same computer system. Do you think I'll have any problems between the two different updates programs? I'm considering installing the NavData as well you see. Sorry, but I've researched these questions, and I cannot find the answer. Thank you kindly. Thomas Spear

Will do.

After successfully activating the GNS430/530 program, I started FSX-steam and selected the Cessna 172 where the installation defaulted to. All seemed well until this popup screen appeared below: Mindstar Gauge MPI Gauge: Failed to Load SimConnect Interface DLL C:\Program Files (x86)\Mindstar\Flight Sinulator Addons\iSimConnect.dll Error Code 14001 "[OK] button" And the GNS430/530 was not available for the selected aircraft. Request assistance with this issue please. Thank you kindly.

Kind regards.

Thank you kindly. Would you recommend that I re-run the original installer for the Mindstar GNS439/530?

My question was, should I delete just the registry "SubKey:Setup Path" in the "values" pane, or the whole "\Microsoft Games\" key in the "Keys" pane, or just the "\FSX\", or the "\10.0\, or what? And then, how should I proceed with the installation? Thank you kindly.

I recently purchased Mindstar GNS430/530 and I'm having trouble finishing the installation. I went into the mindstar folder and found the folder named tools. There is an application called "regjump", but there is no program called "SimRegEdit", so I went into the regedit the normal way, and exported the keys in question to a safe place after creating a restore point.. I'm going to need some detailed instructions to correct this dual default issue so I can proceed with my Mindstar GNS430/530 installation please. Below are 3 of the registry values and keys that I have discovered relating to my installation: It appears that my failed attempts to install an older 2006 version of FSX has left a residual registry entry. I only have FSX steam edition installed on my PC, and I understand that I need to disable the one that I don't have installed. Since I don't have any of these FSX program platforms installed on my computer, my question is, should I delete the registry "Subkey:Setup Path", or the whole "\Microsoft Games\" folder, or the "10.0" folder, or what? What about that "(Default)" Subkey that says "(value not set)"? Tell me, am I even in the ball park here? Another question that comes to mind is, after I disable the correct registry entry, do I simply re-run the "GNS-setup" application to continue the installation or uninstall it and start over?
