No matter where I attempt to start FSX the icon or game doesn't start Get:
ERROR ID = 25
(Null)
If I try to use the .exe on the FSX tree under my C:\ I get ERROR CODE 8-c0000006
I've tried everything I know and have been advised to do, even checking the registry for the PartMng spelling fault.
I have got to the point of complete reinstalling after having had a perfect install for seven (7) years.
Does anyone know of a fix for this?

Hello Berlopez,
I've been around flight simulation for a good while, and I empathize with your situation; it's frustrating to encounter these kinds of issues, especially after enjoying an error-free run for as long as seven years. Let me attempt to break down possible solutions based on the symptoms you've described.
1. ERROR ID = 25 (Null)
This error is a bit ambiguous, but there are a few things you could look into:
2. ERROR CODE 8-c0000006
This error tends to point towards an issue with the game accessing necessary files or even potential hard drive issues.
3. Registry Check
You mentioned checking for the 'PartMng' spelling error, which is a good step. However, there might be other registry discrepancies you've overlooked.
4. Reinstallation
It's drastic, but sometimes a clean slate is the best solution. Before you do this:
Lastly, if your issue persists, or if you can provide more specific details about the exact nature of the problem or changes to your system prior to the errors, I'd be happy to delve deeper. FSX, though a classic, can sometimes be quirky. If you find that this issue continues, you might consider updating to newer platforms like Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 or X-Plane 12, as they offer enhanced stability and improved graphics.
Hope this helps. Safe virtual skies!
