September 21, 200817 yr Hello,I continue to have difficulties with ActiveSky on my new system. I load ActiveskyX normally. However, once I click on WX Config, ASX stops responding. It never recovers. I am running ASX on the same computer that FSX is running on.System Specs:Windows Vista 64bit, 2.4ghz dual core, 4gb ram, GTX9800 w/512 memory.The problem also appears when I try to load a flight plan. It takes an extremely long time to load (if it loads without an error). I also downloaded and installed file ASX-Update-B1161. No change in behavior. Here is the Xengine log file.11:53:02: Logging Initialized11:53:02: XEngine v1.0.0.332 Copyright
September 21, 200817 yr Hi,Suggestions:Run ASX on the second core.Try with high priority process both On and Off and see if either way makes a difference.What type of plan? A plan generated with FSX or or other software?Right mouse click on the ASX icon and run As Administrator.Thanks!Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
September 21, 200817 yr Author Hi Jim,Item 1: When I am starting up ASX, it is the only thing running. No FSX and I have hardly anything else running on the computer. I will try to attach ASX to a second core.Item 2: I have changed the high priority processes as suggested. No change.Item 3: I am using a plan downloaded from Simroutes. To make sure, I will even generate the plan myself. Fairly simple one KDFW DALL8 SWB HRV Q105 REDFN Q100 SRQ DEEDS1 KMIAItem 4: I am right clicking and running as admin. No change.Thanks for your help Jim.Eric

September 22, 200817 yr Hi. Just curious as to how to set ASX affinity to the second core. Tried this and I got an "Access denied" pop up. Running Vista 64.
September 22, 200817 yr Hi,http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vis...-windows-vista/Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
September 22, 200817 yr Author Jim,I have now assigned ASX to the 2nd core of my machine. No change whatsoever. It is still as slow as before.Eric
September 22, 200817 yr Hi Eric,I processed your plan and things went very quickly.Is anti-virus Off?Is Aero off in Vista?This whole thing sounds like a Vista issue, but I don't have Vista to troubleshoot or suggest a bunch of stuff.Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
September 26, 200817 yr I also downloaded and installed file>ASX-Update-B1161. No change in behavior. What!! Where is this ASX Update B1161 to be found then and what is it for or is that just a typo? I thought the latest ASX Build was B1160.
September 26, 200817 yr Author Jim,It is possible that my video card was dying. Could that cause Active Sky to load slowly?Just curious.Eric
September 26, 200817 yr Hi Eric,Sure could!Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
September 26, 200817 yr Hi Temp,You haven't missed anything!! There is a bug when you design your own weather with B1160 so B1161 fixes this bug. It will be included in a future SP.Thanks!Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
September 26, 200817 yr Author Well,My computer is off to the doctor for repairs. I will let you know if things are better when I get it back!Thanks for your help!Eric
