When i start x-plane i load up all of my settings then i restart to let my res take effect but then windows comes up and says "x-plane has stopped working" what causes this crash how can i get it to just load my settings and not crash?

Hello ! Did you update X-Plane ?http://www.x-plane.com/pg_downloads.html Did you forget to delete old preferences ?http://wiki.x-plane.com/Deleting_the_Preferences Did you check the Log.txt file inside your X-Plane folder ? I hope that helps. Best regards and happy flying ! :(

I did update and i did delete the settings but it always comes back!

What do you change in your settings ? Did you check the Log.txt file you can find inside your X-Plane folder ?

Please send the file crash_log.txt to Laminar Research. Here is my log txt i dont know what is wrong i change the res and about every setting in the rendering options menu.

OK, so it's only if you change the resolution ? Did you activate full screen mode ? In your Log.txt there's this line:

This application has crashed. Please send the file crash_log.txt to Laminar Research.

You can send your crash_log.txt to Laminar Research, or maybe someone can help you in forums like X-Pilot.com or X-Plane.org. Good luck.

Okk thanks

I activated full screen mode but it really is whenever i change one or 2 settings
