Hi everyone well i seem to have got the mcp working by stumbling around in the folders.
I have a folder on c drive called auto config & another on c called IOCARDS both have a load of files in them but the auto cfg folder has the ssetup_files in it

i also have a folder in the main p3d folder called SIOC i think so i could start oc4ba from the sim ( never got that to work ? ) what i did to get the mcp to work was to copy all the files in the IOCARDS folder on c: drive & pasted them into the SIOC folder in p3d. on D: drive
Now you guys need to understand i don't understand software at all i am a welder so i have no idea why that worked.

I do have another problem now though when i switch on the volts power to the mcp I get a usb connect sound and the mcp will connect to the sim via oc3ba & work but the pc then starts to give the usb disconnect - reconnect sound when that happens the mcp goes blank and stops working. if i restart the oc4ba v3 the mcp will work again until I get the usb disconnect - reconnect sound again then i lose the mpc again. this can happen after 20 seconds or after 2 minuets and will continue untill the volts are removed from the mcp. I have looked at this for a while & find that just giving the mcp volts by turning on the mains adapter is the triger for the usb disconnect - reconnect sound
I have checked the connections changed the power socket changed the usb socket but no luck.
Dose anyone know what the problem is.
I will send a email to open cockpits as well but any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Tim

Your SIOC folder is at the wrong place. The documentation for OCBA states quite clearly that , if your P3D is in C:\p3d for example, your SIOC installation has to be in C:\sioc - otherwise OCBA won't work!
