Title: Fs9 won't start no more
Post by: martins on April 04, 2009, 02:30:03 am

Hi
Again.........
After installing Geneva (with the internet update of the addon manager) my FS9.1 won't start no more. About 2 seconds into the startupdisplay (not the menu) I find myself at the desktop again....

If FS9 quits to desktop, some of your files haven't been properly updated, this might happen if FS9 didn't properly quit when you ran the update so, not all files could be updated.

Try the following:

- reboot

- not launch FS9 yet.

- Uninstall Geneva. Reply YES to the final question "Do you want to remove the Addon Manager"

- Check that all bglman* files (both .DLL and .DAT) files in the FS9\MODULES folder have been really removed

- Reinstall Geneva

Sorry, but that's just not possible. If "all the bglmand files are gone" and flight sim doesn't start, then it means the reason why its quits doesn't have anything to do with it.

The ONLY file that gets loaded on start it's bglman.dll so, if you *really* uninstalled it, if you *really* replied YES to the question "do you want to remove the Addon Manager", and if you *really* verified the bglman files are not in the modules folders anymore, than it's 100% suyre the reason why your flightsim doens't start anymore doesn't have anything to do with our products, it must be something else that is in your MODULES folder, which doesn't belong to our products.

I repeat and confirm, the one and only file that might do something like this, is bglman.dll. Once you remove this from your MODULES folder, is as if it was never installed.
