Prepar3D has a special folder where all modules must be installed:
[Drive]:\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D\Addons
In that folder all addons will be installed in their own subfolders.
Of course, you must still create the entry in either dll.xml or exe.xml
Thanks Zeus. I had read that in the SDK. I didnt know it was for modules as well. Good to know.

Hey CG,
At least there is a constant, the distance. That is a sign that 'something exact' is happening to all of you. It will be easier to trace and diagnose.
Middle, I only have 1 Gig of RAM more then you (XP 32bit only uses 3 Gigs of RAM), and you have a dual core, I only have a 1 core chippie. You seem to have a more powerful computer that only needs one more stick of RAM.

The latest version of FSUIPC is P3D compatible, you don't need to copy it over from FSX.
Just download the latest version and install it directly into P3D using the same key you use for FSX.

Its just like with FSX, you have to add it.
I read about it in the P3D SDK, but didnt realise they were talking about the Modules folder. Its the addons 'interface' folder that the game engine refers to. This could be why you are CTD'ing.
Look up the posts to Zeus' post.
EDIT: Here it is;
I am going to go out on a limb and 'guess' that P3D will start with a module now in this 'Addon' folder, and that P3D will probably create the slot in the dll.xml file and you shut down P3D, go into the DLL.XML with Notepad and hand edit 'false' to 'true' to activate that module, like adding tools in the FSX SDK. I need to figure out how this is done. I havent installed the FSUIPC yet.

Whoa there, this needs clarification. I just created a "Addons" folder, dragged the contents of the Modules folder into it, then removed from P3D the original Modules folder. Fired up sim, works but FSUIPC is not there. Came out of sim, reset everything as it was, fired up the sim and FSUIPC was back but - and this is where the confusion seems to be, it is listed under a drop down menu item called ADDONS. It is a menu name ion the running game not a folder name within the explorer program.
Have I got this right?

This is news to me as well. I learned this last night and do not fully understand it. I am sure its discussed over at P3D. I am going to see what I can find out.
