Gee, that reminds me of something. Wonder what it could be...

Finally broke down and did a reinstall. So far, so good. Just got to find out what else got broken in the process.

One thing that has me stumped is that somewhere, somehow in getting it installed, updated and add-ons...

Since I just finished reinstalling FSX after a major corruption I aborted both flights, as I can't be 100% sure FSX is funct...
