Did you update the SDK to SP2? Each service patch has broken the SDK, so you always need to use the matching version.

before i had accerationX i had a working sp2 with sp2 sdk installed and working ,once i installed accerationX the the tools of course dissapered from the menu as i expected ,so i thought id just have to re update the dll file again to make them show up "but no "
so today i have installed the sdks from 1 right through to sp2 again hoping this would work but no luck
so would i have to do a full reinstall of FSX and install the sdks as i update the sp1 acceration corresponding for it to work again ..
sounds weird abit hope you understand what im trying to explain

What about the SDK off the Accel DVD?

Ah ok now i feel silly i didnt even think there was one on there so thats the answer right there to my questions ,i will look next time before i start guessing ,i just thought he sp2 sdk would be the same because accer only had sp2
thanks heaps
