FSX Startup crash

[Gary_Hayes]

I can confirm I have the same issue.

After installing ORD I now get the error and if I say yes it CTD.

Here below is my dll.xml and my scenery cfg out of the main FSX folder.  I dont have one in the appdata\microsoft\fsx folder.

I run Vista 32 and do not have any other scenery addons installed yet for FSX.

As I've said, never mind if it doesn't work the first time. Try a reboot, launch FSX, if you see the error, allow it to run, exit and try again. It will disappear.

This problem doens't have antything to do with scenery.cfg. And, anyway, the scenery.cfg is NOT in the %APPDATA%\Microsoft\FSX folder, but is inside %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Microsoft\FSX. But is not needed anyway.

As your dll.xml clearly shows, you have several modules installed. It's the modules that can create this kind of conflicts. However, for the solution, see above.

If you still see the error, try disabling the antivirus OR (better) try excluding the FSX main folder from scanning. And, after having done this, reinstall the Addon Manager, because your antivirus MIGHT have blocked it at install time, so you don't have the correct version yet.

I understand and I would have not posted here if I had not already tried it a few times. 

But after reading your post I DID try it once more, got the error, allowed it to run, CTD.  I rebooted, tried it again, same result.

My free copy of macafee ran out and I uninstalled it long ago.  I have NO antivirus software currently (stupid I know).  But I went into control panel, made sure windows defender was disabled, and windows firewall disabled.  I then re downloaded the latest addon manager and ran that.  I got the newest versions of the software. 

Upon starting FSX same error, I said yes.  CTD.  I rebooted, re ran FSX, CTD again.

I understand your frustrated from having to deal with this issue as every machine is different, trust me I know I work over at LDS and we had the same issues with FSX/vista..etc.

Please if you ave ANY ideas I am open to try anything and help you and I solve this issue, which may in turn help others.

Try this:

- open FSX.CFG (found under %APPDATA%\Microsoft\FSX ), search for all the lines that contains a reference to bglmanx.dll, DELETE every line that has one. Save the file.

- delete from the FSX main folder all the files that starts with bglmanx* (there should be 1 .dll and 3 .dat)

- reboot

- reinstall the Addon Manager, check is downloading these files when the installation starts.

- launch FSX, check that is asking you to trust the module, trust the module, and see if it works. As usual, try it at least twice.

Can you try disabling all other modules in DLL.XML, and leave just the Addon Manager on ?

[Gary_Hayes]

yea I disabled every addon in dll.xml except addon manager, still same problem.

Oh well I guess this one is just a mystery vista/FSX problem.
