When I start up FSX, all is fine until I click on "fly now". Even then all goes well until I am looking at my VC and down the runway. The engine is running. All of a sudden the sound goes out, the game freezes, and a fatal error occurred message appears. I am given the option of sending a report and/or restarting FSX. When I chose neither, I am taken back to my desktop. I guess this is kind of a CTD. I have upgraded my graphics driver, deleted my FSX.CFG, and restarted FSX. The problem persists. Does anyone have any ideas of what is going on? I would hate to start all over again. Thank you for any help. Bob K.

Need more information on the fatal error.Windows key and R, type in eventvwr.msc and press enter. Depending on your version of windows select either application log or windows logs and then application - look for the error - it will be red, let us know what it contains.

Hi Werner,I'd be concerned at the processor power errors - do you have the latest drivers for your motherboard installed? You might also want to have a look in the system log for errors around the same time.Scott

Scottthanks so much for your reply a) the system is 1 month old so i should have the latest driver forthe motherboard - but will check anyhow. :( will check the system log as suggested thanks werner
