Unable to connect plan G to fsx

[melvynkirk]

Hello Tim

After my computer contracted a very nasty virus, I have had to wipe my hard drive clean. The virus has been eliminated, and I am making good progress re installing all the material to run F/S once more.

Everything is going fine, but for PLAN G. Having installed plan G with no problem and run the data base problem free, I find when trying to connect plan G to FSX i get the message (unable to connect to FS (is FS running etc) FSX is running of course.

Here are the settings I am using.

I have dowloaded NET4
I am running plan G and fsx on the same computer.
My F/S connection is default   ie    simconnect, network mode IPV4, fsx computer , local host

I am running windows 7

As I said everything else I have re installed has not been a problem, the settings above worked ok before my catastrophe,

I have an old computer with vista and plan G works ok on the above settings.

I hope you can help me.

Mel Kirk.

Have you installed SP2 for FSX?

I have the gold edition which I think has sp2 built in.

Thank you Tim. Although I have the gold plus accelaration pack, I did not install the accelaration pack which contains sevice pack 2.

Once again many thanks. Mel.
