April 10, 201115 yr You did put FSX on a different drive, right? Or - at least, not under C:\Program Files? i7 [email protected] | 32GB RAM | EVGA RTX 3080Ti | Maximus Hero VII | 512GB 860 Pro | 512GB 850 Pro | 256GB 840 Pro | 2TB 860 QVO | 1TB 870 EVO | Seagate 3TB Cloud | EVGA 1000 GQ | Win10 Pro | EK Custom water cooling.
April 10, 201115 yr Author Yes I followed nicks guide. turned off uac right after install, installed fsx to c:\games\fsx and first made sure full rights to add users on those foldersran all setup as administratorI think it's something to do with my graphics card. I just downloaded the latest nvidia beta driver, and changed my frame limiter to unlimited from 30. Heres hoping.It's actually d3d.dll not d3d9 but so aggravating.
April 10, 201115 yr If you are overclocking the GPU, I suggest undoing it. My GTX 580 seems to prefer no overclock and it certainly makes FSX more stable. Shane Gavin

April 11, 201115 yr Author So far so good, seems to want to run unlimited frames. Otherwise it crashes with that d3d.dll error.

There have been a good number of updates to DX9 since W7 RTM was released...recommend you go to support.microsoft.com, go to the downloads section, and download/run the DirectX updater. If you can't find it, I have a link to it in item #1 of the FAQs on the TinMouse forum here on AVSIM.RegardsBob ScottColonel, USAF (ret)ATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-VColorado Springs, CO Bob Scott | President and CEO, AVSIM Inc ATP Gulfstream II-III-IV-V Sys1 (MSFS20+24/XPlane12+11): AMD 9800X3D, water 2x240mm, MSI MPG X670E Carbon, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, nVidia RTX4090FE Alienware AW3821DW 38" 21:9 GSync, 2x4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2x2TB Samsung 990 SSD, EVGA 1000P2 PSU, 12.9" iPad Pro Thrustmaster TCA Boeing Yoke, TCA Airbus Sidestick, Twin TCA Airbus Throttle quads, PFC Cirrus Pedals, Coolermaster HAF932 case Sys2 (P3Dv5/v4): i9-13900KS, water 2x360mm, ASUS Z790 Hero, 32GB GSkill 7800MHz CAS36, ASUS RTX4090 Samsung 55" JS8500 4K TV@60Hz, 3x 2TB WD SN850X 1x 4TB Crucial P3 M.2 NVME SSD, EVGA 1600T2 PSU Fiber link to Yamaha RX-V467 Home Theater Receiver, Polk/Klipsch 6" bookshelf speakers, Polk 12" subwoofer, 12.9" iPad Pro PFC yoke/throttle quad/pedals with custom Hall sensor retrofit, Thermaltake View 71 case, Stream Deck XL button box Sys3 (DCS/P3Dv4/ATS/ETS): AMD 7800X3D, MSI MPG X870E Carbon, Noctua NH-D15S, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, EVGA RTX3090 Alienware AW3420DW 34" 21:9 GSync, Corsair HX1000i PSU, 4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2TB Samsung 970Evo Plus, TM TCA Officer Pack, Saitek combat pedals, TM Warthog, TM RS300 FF wheel/pedals, Coolermaster HAF XB case
