April 30, 200521 yr Does it always crash? What kind of a strange noise is this? If you can provide some details maybe we'll be able to clear it up... :)
April 30, 200521 yr Santiago,The sound you are hearing could be due to your sund driver. Do you happen to have a Soundblaster Live sound card? You may do a search for Soundblaster Live on this forum. There has been a multitude of posts about that.Regarding your screenshot. That seems to be a video driver issue. What video card do you use and what driver do you have installed.Hope it helps, Mats JohanssonPMDG Flight Test Dept | Asus Z270-A | Intel i5-7600K @ 4.8 GHz OC/H2O | nVidia Geforce GTX 1070 8GB OC/O2|
May 1, 200521 yr Santiago,Verify that your direct X version is the latest - which is 9.0c or d as your video card is a fairly old one. Also, FS2002 works fine because it does not need the latest drivers for sound and video (including latest direct x).To verify you direct X version, in windows, click START-RUN then type DXDIAG in the little "run" window to bring up the direct x diagnostic tool. It has various tabs for verifying your DX version and if your video and sound drivers are working OK.To get the latest directX drives from Microsoft, go to HTTP://WWW.MICROSOFT.COM/DIRECTX.For soundblaster Live! card, go to HTTP://WWW.SOUNDBLASTER.COM or CREATIVELABS.COM.John I love flying my "iddy biddy Jumbo" CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400, socket 775/3GHz/1333MHz bus/6MB cache MOBO: Asus P5E3 Deluxe WiFi-AP@n/Intel X38 chipset RAM: 4GB Kingston HyperX 1333MHz. rated 7-7-7-20, matched pair (2 x 2GB) GRAPHICS: Sapphire Radeon 5770HD 1GB (w/ fan) MONITOR: Samsung 24", 2494HM LCD wide-screen 1920x1080 SOUND: SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS HARD DRIVES: 1xWestern Digital WD1600JD SATA 160GB (primary/Windows XP and system boot drive) 1xWestern Digital WD3200AAJS SATA2 320GB (secondary/Flight Simulator 2004 running off WinXP Pro 32-bit, games video editing drive) 1xWestern Digital 500GB Black series SATA2 (Windows 7 64-bit: FSX is running off Win7; Windows XP Professional 32-bit) CASE: Antec Sonata III 500W OS: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit for FSX; Windows XP Pro 32-bit for other things.
May 1, 200521 yr This might not be applicable to your problem BUTThe temporary screen corruptions (bits of windows "missing") seem to happen to nVidia users occasionslly. Both my 5700 and my 6800GT do it. It isn't a problem really BUT I've noticed that it only happens when anisotropic filtering and antialiasing are manually set rather than "software controlled".Don't know why

I was just using the search feature for the same problem. I get little "mini windows" while the AIRAC data is loading.Does your navdata happen to load very slow when this occurs as well?I'll play with the AA and AF settings on your advice.Thanks again,BobKMEM Bob Donovan - KBOS
