I've now attempted several short flights, EGGL-EGPF (successful and a shear delight), EGGL-EGCC (perfection), EGKK-EDDT (CTD). I've also had several attempts at flying from KPDX to KSEA with ORBX scenery but each time I've had a freeze followed by a CTD at different stages of the flight. On one flight I had a freeze which resulted in locked controls and gauges and the plane flying endlessly in circles. I don't have trouble with anything else, I've got the recommended settings in my fsx.cfg file, have tried various obvious things and I have a reasonable system, i7 930 overclocked to 3.6 and a GTX470. Oh and I get the heading/LNAV jerk. I finally managed the KPDX-KSEA flight successfully. How? I used the iFly, but now I've seen the holy grail it seemed a bit lacking. I'm pinning my hopes on the upcoming freeze fix but otherwise it's back to the A2A Spit, the Turbo Duke, the Level D and a couple of other flawless favourites. John

Try to use FSX in Admin mode and in compatibility as vista SP2

I'm using Admin mode Win7 64 bit, will try compatibility, John

And assure you that fsx is installed in C:\FSX and not in C:\Programfiles\ etc etc

Yep, actually E:\FSX John

What about enroute to EDDT? But OK I'll give up on that route despite no problems with iFly 737. John

I am having CTD/Fatal Error without using ORBX products

I had a CTD flying SEA to SJC using ORBX. It happened 5 minutes into the flight . I have done dozens of flights elsewhere without any problems. I think its the ORBX. I never used FSX till the NGX came out so I can't be sure.

You had 1 CTD and have already solved it to say it's the scenery? Look above, others that don't have it, are having CTD as well.

Didn't say I solved it. I was sharing my experience and I said I think its the problem. At no point did I say matter of fact it is. WOW!

WOW!

No, I was sharing my experience related to this topic. You have shared nothing and contributed nothing but to read into my post as if I have resolved it. Don't be a troll.

And I responded to your inaccuracies in a civil manor, without the WOW. Only troll here I see is you. Like I said, your 5 minutes of FSX with your 1 CTD isn't enough to make an educated conclusion.

Educated? You take the words like "so I can't be sure " as meaning I know for sure its the problem? You have issues with PMDG. I saw you educated post on their facebook page. Troll
