If you minimize lots, run it in windowed mode. Then just maximise it to fill your screen. That way you never actually have to minimize FSX, just the programs you use along side

what did event viewer say about the crash. Also a little more information and specs. People are always quick to blame others.

If it is not IFR conditions it is not fun.

Could this be related to your graphics drivers possibly? I only ask because I must maximize, minimize, window, and non-window about 30-40 times on a long session and have never seen that happen with FSX for as long as I've owned the sim (from release day years ago, lol).

The information given is way too vague to offer any help in the form of troubleshooting. Refer to post #3. Also, knowing a bit about your system is always a help. Since you payed $70 for the plane, I would hope you knew a bit about your computer before you made such a purchase! Copy and paste the error message you're getting.

The best thing to do is to run in windowed mode so you can still do other things outside of the sim. EMB series seems to only crash with minimizing and instant replays.

funny because i do have the end mod, and i dont experience this with any of my other payware aircraft.

Nor do I are you saying you do have a problem with the ngx and this mod, because that is my situation.
