I am a HUGE fan of Linda, and in the past, Linda got along just great with VRInsight's VRiSim software and Serial Port drivers. However since getting the latest and greatest from VRinsight website, all of a sudden, Linda stops working (the key assignments on my WARTHOG throttle stop functioning!
Puzzle:
1. Start FSX - Linda autostarts with FSX
2. Select default airplane PMDG 737NGX and default location KLAX airport ramp C8
3. Show FMC on Virtual Cockpit and open a Seperate undocked FMC window
4. Start VRinsight's VRiSim software to control the VRI CDU-II and V737 Overhead units.
5. Linda controls the VRI MCP-combo II plus the Thrustmaster HOTAS WARTHOG throttle/joystick combo
6. Latest version of FSUIPC 4.853 is installed
7. Initialize the PMDG 737NGX from cold & dark using V737 Overhead and CDU-II
8. Commence flight operations
During flight, without warning LINDA will suddenly stop responding. I have to forcibly restart linda and even then the results on my Thrustmaster equipment are not 'instantaneous' or immediate. This tells me something must be conflicting with the Serial Port that the MCP Combo II is on (this is my guess). While nothing new has been plugged in or removed during flight, I can count on this pheonomenon recurring, multiple times during a flight.
Something is wrong, and I have no clue how to fix it.
Any suggestions from Linda team gratefully accepted!
