The red barron 41 Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Yes as the title says 'I think I've just lost my weekend'. Tonight I have been receiving an error from FSX, Error ID = 25 (null). Having just spent some time with Google it appears my only options were to re-install Sp2 or acceleration (Which I have done) and failing this then a re-instal is the only solution. Running Windows 7 64bit, and this has only started tonight and I have not changed anything. Now if anyone else has any ideas then please post them below. Cheers TRB Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Hi Edward, I share your pain, it's looking like I have to re-install Windows and FSX. Looking at all the results on Google, I agree a re-install looks to be in order. Good luck. Link to post Share on other sites
The red barron 41 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Having just smashed up a passenger train in Railworks (as you do) and calmed down I have found a solution! It turned out that my desktop FSX shortcut was directed into my FSX root, not the actual application! having now made a new shortcut I now have FSX working again! So my weekend has been savored! Huzzar! A now relieved TRB Link to post Share on other sites

The red barron 41 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Thanks Joe, I have no idea why it did this, (windows gremlins have emerged again) I will certainly enjoy my weekend now! Edward Link to post Share on other sites
Sabre 28 Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 You didn't by any chance get a "win32 gael" virus at any point recently did you? This little b*gger has been picked up by Microsft Essentials a couple of times recently but when it's cleaned off system various items wouldn't work for me. These included FTX Central, FTX Aero and previously FSX all of which I managed to fix - FSX with new shortcut and FTX by running the last patch again!! However Uk2000 Configurator could only be fixed by a reinstall of all my UK2000 Airports. Link to post Share on other sites
The red barron 41 Posted April 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 Hi Sabre. As far as I'm aware I didn't get that. Like I said I don't know why my shortcut up sticks and moved the pointer but it did. Thankfully though all is well with FSX. TRB Link to post Share on other sites
britfrog 180 Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 I had this a couple of years ago and was pulling my hair out looking at having to reinstall the whole lot when purely by accident found the same thing , dont know how it gets changed , but it sure made me check every possible thing before proposing a reload.
