    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

FSX keeps restarting

Here's an odd one, FSX keeps restarting over and over without me actually touching the desktop short cut, ive even removed it from desk top and it still happen's. either im looking through folder's in Cdrive, using one of my tools like ADEX or just running my mouse over a blank desk top and on to an unrelated icon like Google chrome or something ( oops, its just fired up again while i was writing this post :biggrin-new: ) Any idea's ?
 
Sounds like it is part of your startup menu, as if it is a standard application. Did you check your application manager?
 
Mouse seems fine, and there's nothing in my start-up menu that looks out of place, but thanks for the suggestions
 
Only thing I can think of: pressing the windows key and a number will launch the applications pinned in the taskabar. Win key + 1 launches the first one, closest to the Windows logo. Win key + 2 the next one and so on. If FSX is on your taskbar you might being unknowingly firing it.
While using my keyboard I accidently start programs for this reason sometimes. Maybe the same is happening to you. :confused:
