A selection of hints & tips for resolving issues & configuring FSX.

FSX will not start

Issue

FSX locked up & had to be terminated by the user.

Subsequently FSX refuses to start, only loading to the initial title screen.

Solution

Corrupted Logbook

Look in -
XP - C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\My Documents\Flight Simulator X Files
Vista -
for the file - Logbook.BIN
Rename to - Logbook_DATE.BIN

Now fire up FSX.
Does FSX now load properly ?

If so, you had a corrupted logbook.

There are a number of Logbook Edtiors available.
Example - http://lc0277.nerim.net/wiki/index.php?software

FSX will have created a new - Logbook.BIN
Rename it to - Logbook_Empty.BIN

Copy - Logbook_DATE.BIN
Rename the copy as - Logbook.BIN

Open the logbook in the editor.
Delete the last entry.
Save the file & close the editor.

Fire up FSX.
Hopefully that should work,
and you'll have all, but your very last flight, logged.

Back up your logbook & granted rewards regularly.
