Sorry for late reply... specs are the same. Now, symptoms are intermittent. Latest drivers installed before OP. If I use stock wx with TS selected I get great lightning. I've posted this on the HIFI forum. so maybe they can come up with something. Believe it or not I did search but didnt see my old post -- forgot about it anyway. I wonder if [company name removed] would affect lightning -- I've had that installed for 18 or so months. I think it is for ground lights... Thanks.

I suspect this has been debated before but can't find any relevant info via search function. The solution given at HIFI is to refresh the shader cache; done that many times with no joy. I run AS 5 with ASCA. I get plenty of CB/TS but no lightning in external view and just black boxes flashing instead a "lightning reflection" when in cockpit. Just wondering if anyone has solved this. Thanks max

I like ur PC, John!! I just fixed it by recovering the prog data p3dv5 folder from one of my many backups. So far, so good. This happened for no apparent reason, I hadn't changed/added anything between my last good session and the next bad one. All I can say is Backups are good! Thanks Walter

Suddenly, for no apparent reason, elevations for ALL airports both add-on and stock are wrong. Also, scenery polys (?) are showing up where they should not be. For example: SVMI is right on the coast of Venezuela and that there is mostly ocean North of the airport; no desert polys or city tiles. However, North of the airport all I see is city and tan desert-like tiles. I've disabled ORBX one at a time(I have them all), Pilot's 2024 Mesh one area at a time and even un-installed and re-installed the P3Dv5.4 Client to no avail. Thanks

Tried different settings with no luck. Updated to latest driver (537.58) and so far is good... We will see. Thank you so much for response. Walter

Using Active Sky, ASCA, EA and Nvidia 537.42. Used to get great lightning depictions. In most recent flight, when on ground I had couple of normal lightning reflections and actual arcs but after takeoff all I got were the boxes. Did search on P3D forum but couldn't find anything, although I remember reading about this somewhere quite a while back. I suppose I should load up the previous driver. In middle of flight right now. Will report back after loading up previous driver. rgds, Walter

Pete, I figured that log file guess of mine may have been a coincidence. I did leave task mgr open while trying to run FSX to see if there was something running that would indicate a second incidence of FSUIPC4 running; there wasn't - that I could tell - no 2nd instance of FSX. I also cold booted and it still happened. The only way I could get through without the dupe error was to re-run the FSUIPC.exe and that was after I uninstalled the QW757 and all its remnants. I haven't tried re-running the FSUIPC.exe with the QW757 still installed. My FSUIPC4 is a paid version, if that matters.

Thanks Jim, Roger that. I tried the simflt forun but it must have been down for some reason. Antway, I solved the problem. It was a duplicate FSUIPC4 log fie that caused the problem ( or seemed to). I compared a backup module folder that I have with the currrent one and a file called FSUIPC.1.log showed up; it wasn't in my backup modules folder, so I deleted it and all is well again. I hope this helps someone else... Thanks agn, Walter

After installing QW757 I go into FSX and I get an FSUIPC4 duplicate notification error. After doing a Windows search and a manual search for the elusive dupilcate FSUIPC4.dll ... there isn't any duplicate. No re-named FSUIPC.dll's - nothing. I'm guessing that when I installed the QW757 it wanted to install an included copy of FSUIPC4 and I stupidly allowed that install. I checked the dll.xml and the proper FSUIPC4.dll entries are present (compared against a backup copy). I don't know where else to look, any ideas? Thanks & rgds to all, Walter

Bought Combo Dec/08; got update in March/09. Uninstalled as required. Went to re-install after replacing mobo and PS and HDD and received error on validation: Error number: 0x800C0005. Correct email, order # and password entered. (Probably because of the new HDD???? maybe???)Using Win7/64 with UAC off and running as Admin. Problem #2:Tried to submit support ticket and my normal login did not work; didn't recognize my email address. Then tried to re-register and kept on getting a msg to re-enter the anti-bot string.In summary, my normal login to the main PMDG site works... However, when I go to the support tab to submit a ticket it won't recognize me and it won't let me register.I'll be out of town for a week or to so I won't be able to respond to any questions. In the meantime, thanks for your anticipated assistance!!42
