Double startup

[TSR2]

Just been thinking, could it be you have anotehr addon running as part of FSX. I know that when I launch FSX traffic toolbox the first part of the name in task manager is FSX too, so it looks like FSX is running twice. Is there any way you could post a screen shot of your task manager list?

Ben, I think Gary is referring to FS9.

Hi Fellas, FS9 has developed a strange problem.Gary

From my own experience, when running FS9 in Win XP, I have had occasional problems when shutting down FS9 and trying to re-start it. Win XP occasionally states that 'FS9 is already running'. The only way I've found around this, is to re-start Windows.
I've not encountered this problem with Win 7 (64bit).

Sorry, if this is of little help.

Hi Kevin,

I know he's on FS9, but there I thought I remember a "traffictoolbox" style addon in FS9 too, so thinking it may be a similar thing

Thanks for all your suggestions Guys. My whole system is saved as images, so as a test i put the image back in where i was on xp and all is running perfect now...FS runs without any probs,, so i'm gonna stick with xp again as FS is my most important thing on my pc......Sad! yes i know

Not sad mate.. you know where your priorities are!

Glad you're sorted (though I'd have been interested to learn what it was causing it)
