It Disapears???

After I assign the button commands & check OK, when I restart FSX from the start, ALL the commands are blank, I would need to do this again.
My first step was to remove ALL the previous commands then change to my requested configuration.
Did not work
Help.

Do you not have to save the settings now?

In the Demo you had to save your graphical settings. I would think it is the same with assignments so you could save different setups  :)

No, it still retains the last settings. You can save different versions though while you are making changes so when it all goes pear shaped you can easily revert to a set that worked.

This is obviously a problem to do with this specific install. I've had a problem with my latest install not retaining the new default flight but last time it seemed to have. Also, with my latest install I've left the music on, and when I click on my Task Bar volume control it cuts out until I close the volume control again. Then it starts up again. Didn't do that before.

I did a post earlier about the sheer unpredictability of FSX compared to previous versions. I seemed to solve the speciific problem I mentioned in that posting but I still think that the program is a bit too flakey and inconsistent.

I had this same problem at first kept configuring the control settings to run with my X52. I would save them, then when I next signed onto the sim, I would load my config settings and the changes were gone...had to reasign them again.

I must just have been saving them at the wrong point or something..maybe you have to set and save from the flight screen. Any how now my settings - graphic as well as control are working when I load from the setup screen.
