I have owned FSX for about 3 years, and knock on wood it has run pretty good. I have done hundreds of flights all over the world with both default and payware aircraft and scenery. So tonite as I am coming in on final for Long Beach in my default Lear 45 (after flying around southern california for 90 minutes), FSX comes to a stop. I get an error that says "Computer ran out of available memory, and to restart with different settings, scenery or traffic settings". I have never had this before.The one tweak I did 2 days ago was put the [bUFFERPOOLS] PoolSize=0 line in the FSX CFG, just to try it out. Most of the buffer pools thread is over my head (info overload), but this was an easy thing to try. I obviously don't know much about this stuff and was wondering if this might be why I got this error/crash for the first time ever? Or could it really mean what it says, (not enough memory). I know the CPU has 2 Gigs of Ram and my card is an 8800GTX with 768 megs. Anybody else have issues with the buffer pool tweak that resembles this one? I do think the tweak helped my FPS and made the LA area run smoother, at least for 1.5 hours anyway.

Hi,I have problems running BufferPools at zero (0), so I run bufferpools at 500000. You may want to try that setting and see what happens.
