I have just purchased a registered copy of FSUIPC, registered it in FS, restarted FS, and now SB3 is getting goofy. It gives me the following message: "The squawkbox module was unable to start because FSUIPC could not be initialized. Ensure FSUIPC is properly installed and restart Flight Simulator to try again."
I have properly registered FSUIPC, and it even shows its working as a registered copy.
Anyone able to shed light on this one?

Make sure you restart your computer after. Try reinstalling SB3.

Did that, and even deleted the fsuipc.dll and SB3, did a reinstall of SB3, and still no dice.

Andy,
Are you using the NoCD patch for FS?

Try again with FSUIPC and SB3 installed. After you get the error, post the contents of the FSUIPC log file over here.

Also, run a windows search for fsuipc.dll. If there are any duplicates ANYWHERE on your PC aside from the one that is supposed to be in the FS Modules folder, then delete the duplicate(s). Hey, it happens sometimes.
And make sure if you find dupes, that they are indeed full fsuipc.dll. Don't get confused by the fsui.dll in the modules folder of FS.
Cheers!

I went in and deleted all FSUI** files from the root directory, reinstalled SB3, and all was fine....until.....I clicked on the "Register" button on the FSUIPC tab and i was immediatly logged off the server. When I closed the FSUIPC tab, I was able to log on again.
Anyone ever heard of this one?

As far as I remember you start FS, register FSUIPC, and restart FS.

So Andy, yo'ure saying that if you register FSUIPC, then you are bumpd off of the SB3 or better yet, Vatsim servers? WHat version of FSUIPC are you running? If you are trying the latest, then try an earlier version. Easily found if you google FSUIPC.
You may also want to post this on the Pete Dowson forums. Pet's a good guy and knows his poduct extremely well. And as Adam says, post the contents of the FSUIPC log file here.

One other possibility is that the SB3 download you have has a old copy of FSUIPC. If so, download a new copy after you install SB3. The install FSUIPC and register it. Just an idea. Good Luck. Other than that, switch to FSInn.

Ken, and Richie, both good ideas, but I have the latest version of SB3, and the newest version of FSUIPC (my computer decided to take a nose dive, and was wiped clean).
Ken, I have put the problem on Pete's site on Avsim, but he is out of town until 6/18/2008. Ill try and find a older version of the FSUIPC and see what happens.
Thanks for all the help. Thats why I love this VA.

If your HDD was wiped out, then I'm assuming you will need to re-install FS correct? If so, you should not encounter many issues. A word of advice, install FS9, FS9.1, FSUIPC, register it, then all add-ons. This has proven the most effective method of installaton.
Let me know if you have any further issues.

Ken, sorry, I have had it up and running with FS for a month or so now. I, for the most part, followed that seniero anyway.
Where do I find the SB3 log file so I can post it here?
