September 27, 201213 yr Hi, I was starting a new flight and was in the "free flight menu" when the power was loss. Not a psu problem the pc was hard disconnected from power socket. After that i boot the system again everything works fine. Start new flight and then it CTD on free flight menu. Thing i have done: Check harddisk for errors Delete fsx.cfg Disable all addon scerery's Clean start up without all trusted dlls Reinstall nvidia drivers Thanks for your tips and tricks;) Remco
September 27, 201213 yr Thing i have done: Check harddisk for errors - good! Delete fsx.cfg - Better Disable all addon scerery's - Not necessary Clean start up without all trusted dlls - when you delete the fsx.cfg and rebuild, this is done at that time. Reinstall nvidia drivers - Good. Not really necessary though. Your problem is most likely caused by something that got corrupted when the power was suddenly lost. You can try a repair of FSX/Acceleration to repair any corrupted files. If you have any addon like GEX that replaces your default scenery textures, you will have to only reinstall that product to get your GEX textures back. Another problem might be related to the fsx startup flight. You probably had a scenario set up in free flight that you were getting ready to load and fsx didn't get to run it when you shutdown unexpectedly. In your My Documents/Flight Simulator X Files, there's a Previous Flight.flt, Previous Flight.FSSAVE, and Previous Flight.WX. You can safely delete the .wx file. That was the weather. I would rename Previous Flight.Flt to Previous Flight.old, restart FSX and see if this fixes the problem. If not, go back and rename the .old to .flt. Have you looked at the Event Viewer to see if there's a faulting module for the CTD? That could give you a clue as to what caused the crash. If it was, for instance, a PMDG 737 module, then you can figure that aircraft was corrupted and you need to do a repair or reinstall of that product. A faster way of finding an app error is downloading AppCrashView - http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/app_crash_view.html. It will show you all the crashes you have had since you owned your computer. Hope this helps. Best regards, Jim Jim Young | AVSIM Online! - Simming's Premier Resource!

September 27, 201213 yr EDIT: If you do have a Previous Flight.FSSAVE in your My Documents/FSX folder, doubleclick it. It will automatically load your previous flight. If that works then you might be able to open FSX and load a free flight in the future. Jim Young | AVSIM Online! - Simming's Premier Resource!
