Hi, have recently upgraded my PC, reinstalled, made the tweaks and had FS working a treat.Yesterday I decided to reinstall PDMG 737 (600/700/800/900) since then FS starts, when I select a flight the loading scenery bar appears but doesnt move and CTD ! I can choose the default Cessna and go to any airport but other aircraft causes a CTD.Have tried all that I can think of, rebuilt the config file, uninstalled PDMG, restored the PC none of which have worked.Please if anyone has a suggestion please help a frustrated pilot.Thanks JohnCore2 Duo 66002048 MB DDR160GB HDDNVidia 7950 512mbSaitek Flight SystemHead TrackerRC4AShttp://fs2crew.com/linepilot.jpg

Here is an update for those that might be interested. It appears the PMDG install corrupted my other add on aircraft somehow, I had to uninstall LVLD and F1 ATR and then reinstall them, plus liveries and FS2Crew, not a five minute job !! All seems ok again now except a horribly fragmented hard drive !! Im working on that now.Would be interested to hear from anyone who has experienced similar as I am waiting for a copy of 747 Q of S to be delivered and hope when I install that I wont have a repeat of todays nightmare.Regards JohnCore2 Duo 66002048 MB DDR160GB HDDNVidia 7950 512mbSaitek Flight SystemHead TrackerRC4AShttp://fs2crew.com/linepilot.jpg

Please help ??? I thought you'd fallen into quicksand or something. What a relief to only find you have PC trouble... This happens John, sometimes when you do what I call a "rush install". It's when you're so keen to get all your addons back that you install them all as fast as physically possible, thus creating a scrambled up fragmented mess. I would start all over again, install one plane, ensure it works. If it works only then move onto the next one. It takes a bit longer but you then keep it tidy and in control.

Hi...and adding to Jonn's excellent advice ...If any addon is likely to put anything in the registry of windows(ie you use and install "setup.exe") the it is always worth a rebootafter the installation - even if it does force a reboot. This waythe registry with multiple modifications does not get a bit confused. TomPS : was getting a failed post and getting SQL back - so I hopethis post does not occur several times
