Good evening dear friends,
as I said a few days ago, I am happy to have found the community again after a few years of absence;
this coincides by pure chance with a problem that I can't solve this time, but it will be better to explain in a more complete way:
I have a HC (homecockpit737001 on youtube) for which I had the bad idea of replacing the 3 monitors shown in the video with 3 Samsung 27" curved monitors; this is where the problems started.
I must specify that I have windows 7 prof, 7 monitors, P3D, FSUIPC, mobiflight, 737 PMDG and 13 MEGA 2560 cards connected.
In the past, when problems arose with usb HUBs and stuff like that I always managed (rather miraculously) to fix it.
But this time it's not like that. I've been down for about a month because there's something wrong with mobiflight or something related to it and I can't figure out anything.
I specify that until today I was using 9.2.
Now I can't even load MF
MF - simply wonderful !!

Hi

Welcome back.

Badly i can not directly help.... The Informatin "Mobiflight not starts" is a little to less to give you a solution.
Mostly this is in case of a corrupted MCC File.
You can try to simply remove the current used file (You pretty know what file you use last time)....
Move it out of its current folder.... So MF can not find it.

If this is the reason then MF will now start again !

In that case you can then try to load the file in the meanwhile running Mobiflight ..... If your lucky it not crash. Maybe you directly see the issue spot. Mostly in the last config line you create.

Another idea can be to disconnect all Megas and try to run MF. If this works one ( or more) of the Megas are corrupted.
Solution here is mostly the EEPROM Clear and a reflash from the Firmware and devices.
So connect one by one and start MF each time to find out then what board is the problematic one.

I hope you got backups of all your MFMC Board settings and also maybe a still working MCC file from Your Project.


At the end....
We can not do support for older Versions anymore. Basic rule since some Years..... Users have to update always to live version. There was so many changes since 9.2
I can“t remember myself what features that time still was there and what not.

If you like.... Join also our DISCORD: https://discord.gg/99vHbK7 Most users are there and also most support is done there today.
Good Luck !

Dear Pizman, as always you are right!
I had a problem in the MCC file.
it looked like a com port problem but in reality it was enough to upload the configuration file again and everything went ok.
