FS9 occasionally exits when I try to bring up Activerad...

[steffenpelz 0]

Yup. You read right. Once every now and then, when I try to bring up or close the Active Radar screen by hitting Ctrl+F12, FS9 shuts down immediately altogether. Extremely annoying as I was 100m away from landing after a 5500nm flight...twice today. Anybody else experiencing this andf any advice as to how to fix it?SP

Hi,Sounds graphics related...Make sure your cloud set is 32 bit (if you have a 3rd party set installed such as FSW's excellent clouds)..Also make sure RENDER TO TEXTURE is off. Updating your video drivers to the latest version is always recommended especially when you are having such problems.Does this help?
