PMDG Gauge Corruption with SB3

Featured Replies

Hi Guys,I have the entire PMDG 737 series including the 800/900.Today i downloaded Squawkbox 3 and installed it.After installing it the PMDG main panel gauge file got corrupted and started crashing FS9.After reinstalling the last of the 800/900 updates it has been working fine.But SB3 is not working.I searched the forum but i guess i'm the 1st one to get this error.I tried reinstalling the 800 file again and after that FS9 did not crash but SB3 does not connect and i get a message that sb3 has to close.Please find a solution for this.-NavneetFS 2004 Version 9.1AMD Athlon 64 3000+ATI Radeon 9600 128MB - Anti-Aliasing 6x512MB DDR400 Kingston RAMWestern Digital 30 GB - Seagate 8.4 GBHp CD12 CDRW - Pioneer DVD ROMLG Flatron 775FT 17' MonitorCreative SBLive!

All manner of addon aircraft were used by testers, not limited to PMDG, Level D, Captain Sim, Wilco and PSS, as well as all manner of freeware and included aircraft.No reports of any such issues were made.

Easy people.Its not about it working on your systems.I have this problem and many others like me.If you checked the SB3 forum in their website you will know how many people have that problem and most of them relate it to PMDG (Not a complaint guys).It caused the main panel gauge file to get corrupt and because of that i had to reinstall PMDG and remove SB3.Could you give me your system specs.Now i know that RAM is important for FS to work stutter free and without any problems.I have 512mb is that enough for all the addons and applications i run or do i need to get another module i.e 512+512=1GB ?-NavneetFS 2004 Version 9.1FSUIPC 3.47 RegisteredAMD Athlon 64 3000+ATI Radeon 9600 128MB - Anti-Aliasing 6x512MB DDR400 Kingston RAMWestern Digital 30 GB - Seagate 8.4 GBHp CD12 CDRW - Pioneer DVD ROMLG Flatron 775FT 17' MonitorCreative SBLive!
