    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 Tom Clayton has offered to post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Pop Ups lost

Good morning all. Started FSX this morning and went for a quick flight. When I went to use the pop ups they have disappeared, so I swapped aircraft with the same results,same with another aircraft.I am pretty sure I have not deleted anything since yesterday when I did have pop ups so I would greatly appreciate any advice on restoring pop ups please.

Regards Paul Day.
 
I have had this to happen to me. For whatever reason, your FSX controls assignments may have been changed or lost. You will need to check and select your keyboard assignments. Once you are satisfied with your control assignments, I suggest backing up the controls cfg file, just in case it happens again.
 
I have checked the keyboard assignments and they seem to be correct ie SHIFT+1 =Panel 1,SHIFT+2 =Panel 2. I have also tried resetting default assignments without joy. When I select Panel 1 a blank panel appears for about half a second and then goes. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Regards Paul Day.
 
You could try a different saved flight. The pop up panel coordinates are saved in the .flt file and may have gotten corrupted (off screen) on the last FS shutdown.
