Haven't used any of the extras as yet, a bit busy downloading the PMDG 737NGX, and setting it up. Having a few problems re the key assignments though. I have 5 Leo Bodnar cards, which I use solely for setting up all my switches and rotaries for the NGX. Every time I start the sim, I have to go through the laborious task of deleting all the unwanted key assignments which seem to automatically fill themselves in. It's a real pain. Is there anyway I can prevent this happening. Advice appreciated. Cheers, Neil

A man has been arrested by Sri Lankan customs authorities after being spotted attempting to smuggle, with 'difficulty', close to a kilo of gold hidden in his rectum. The 45-year-old India-bound passenger was seen behaving 'suspiciously' in the departure lounge of Colombo airport, spokesman Sunil Jayaratne said. 'He was called for a thorough screening after customs officers noticed him walking with difficulty and appearing to be in pain,' Mr Jayaratne said. A close examination revealed the man was hiding 904 grams of gold wrapped in black plastic sheets, including seven yellow 'b

Hi Beejay, Thanks very much for your offer. I live about 13 Klm from town, and have to use a wireless internet to download, I have a large dipole antenna on the roof, so my download speed is pathetic. My postal address is PO Box 35,Woomelang, 3485. I will pay postage, if you so desire. Thank you once again, much appreciated. Cheers, Neil

Just been watching a crop sprayer low flying over, and around my house for the last half an hour. It's a PZL-Mielec M-18 Dromader, dropping mouse bait over one of my son-in laws 700 acre wheat paddocks. Very very noisy, but fun to watch some good low flying and steep turns. Neil

Hi Guys, As I have completed my computer upgrade, and am now about to get P3Dv4, I see that it is recommended to use a download manager. I have never used one before, and have no idea how it works. Have all of you who have P3D, used it?. There seems to be quite a choice available, so does anyone have a recommendation on any particular manager. Cheers, Neil

I left the original HDD in the case which is my C drive, and also my SSD, which is my E drive, this has my FSX on it. I am going to have to replace the C drive at some stage, as it is running out of storage capacity. Hope this not going to create too much hassle. Reading up on data transfer between HDD's it seems to be a fairly straight forward exercise. Wish i had put in a bigger HDD in the first place. Cheers, Neil

Tried the event viewer, but couldn't see anything untowards, not that I really knew what I was looking at !!. Then had a Micrsoft warning that O/S wasn't a legal copy. I had to re enter the product key, which fortunately I had. So that's fixed. It looks like I am going to have uninstall the whole system and start again. The not so joys of upgrading a system !!! Thanks anyway guys. Neil

Well, I relocated the CFG file, rebooted, and FSX still wont start

Thanks John, Will have to try that. Forgot to mention, that I ran the repair disc, but it didn't seem to make any difference. Neil

Yesterday, my rebuild was completed, with a new motherboard, CPU, Graphics card, memory, etc. When I click on the start icon for FSX, I just get the the spinning circle, then a notice saying (A fatal error has occurred). Then a box with ( M/S Flight Simulator X has stopped working). It refuses to open. I have no idea whats causing this to happen. Any of you brighter tech savvy guys have a clue. I really dont want to uninstall and reinstall if I can possibly avoid it, as I have heaps of payware aircraft, weather,gps and scenery add ons etc. FSX Gold, Win7 Home Premium 64bit Cheer

A man got on a bus with both of his front trouser pockets full of golf balls and sat down next to a beautiful blonde. The puzzled blonde kept looking at him and his bulging pockets. Finally, after many glances from her, he said, "It's golf balls." The blonde continued to look at him for a very long time, thinking deeply about what he had said. After several minutes, not being able to contain her curiosity any longer, she asked, "Does it hurt as much as tennis elbow?
