Problem with C172 Trainer and Accufeel-won't reinstall

Post by Virgilus »

FSX crashed and I had to uninstall it and reinstall it. Afterwords I ran the installer for C172 trainer and Accufeel v2 and now when I open FSX the aircraft is invisible except for the interior and Accufeel addon does not appear. How can I fix this?

Hello,

welcome to the forums. Normally in cases such as your own the issue is because the user forgot to reinstall the 2 service packs to update FSX to SP2 standard.

thanks,
Lewis

Thanks for the reply. The next evening after the problem (my 5 hours of frustration dealing with Microsoft) I found someone on Youtube who had the same problem. It turns out that it was a registry issue and after following the steps the guy gave and reinstalling the software it is back up and running correctly again. I had been so frustrated with the various sites that Microsoft gave me that I thought that I was going to have a stroke. But I feel much better now. Again thanks for the reply.

Good to hear, if an FSX user you might want to consider FSX: Steam edition, it comes with all updates included, is supported with some extra tweaks over the old version and also can be picked up super cheap in the steam sales, there'll no doubt be the steam Christmas sale starting soon.
