April 3, 201313 yr I have 2 EVGA GTX 590's that are used with a 6 monitor setup for Flight Simulator X. Everything has been running perfect for a year and a half. One day last week when I tried to run the game, the monitors would flicker and it would kick back to the desktop as the game began. I've tried everything possible to fix it (patches, settings, etc.) to fix it, but to no avail. I decided to try some other games that worked before (Battlefield 3 and Supereme Commander 2) and both developed the same problem. The game starts and immediately crashes to desktop. As a last ditch effort I decided to reformat the computer. Reinstalled Windows 7 x64 and agot ll of the drivers loaded and..... SAME problem! So I thought it was a hardware issue. I took both cards out and put them in one at a time. With each card installed individually (3 monitors connected) the games worked like the should. Both cards separated had no problems. However when I put them both in together it crashes again. The windows background and icons appear on all 6 monitors as they should, but wont work when I start ANY game. I did discover when I plug in up to 4 monitors (in any order in any port) it continues to work properly. As soon as I plug a 5th monitor in games crash. It doesnt matter what monitor or to what port or what game. Temperatures are fine and the desktop memory tested ok. I've talked to other computer techs who are baffled. Any ideas? Please help
April 3, 201313 yr You should download and run AppCrashView - http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/app_crash_view.html and copy and paste the results of the latest crash here so we can take a look at it. It interprets the Microsoft crash program (.wer) and provides a bit more information. It sounds like you have your settings set too high for five monitors. If Windows starts up and runs properly and you can do other tasks like surf on the Internet, then your settings for the games are too high. A lot more resources are required to run five monitors but it has been done. I just don't know at what quality. If you look at the setups at this link - http://www.wideview.it/wideview.htm, individuals with many monitors use several computers properly networked through Wideview to successfully run FSX. I also like the following website in regards to wide screen gaming - http://www.wsgf.org/. Hope this helps. Best regards, Jim Jim Young | AVSIM Online! - Simming's Premier Resource!

April 5, 201313 yr Your problem was caused by the FSX g2d.dll. The G2D module does all the 2D drawing, fps counter, slew coordinates and the menu system. Its almost impossible to diagnose what caused it. It did load successfully though (means nothing as it could have loaded successfully until it found a problem then caused the crash). This module was updated with SP2 so I would uninstall SP2 and see if that fixes the problem but you stated you get this error even with non-fsx games. Yet, you might try it as this particular crash was caused when you started up fsx and not another game. The g2d module is only a FSX module so you won't see it in other game crashes. Since the g2d.dll has some relationship with the fsx menus, fps counter, etc., you might check the dll.xml and make sure it is not corrupted. It is located in the same directory as your fsx.cfg. Right click it and open it with notebook. Since this happens with all games, it has to be a hardware/driver issue. What is the faulting module for the crashes in your other games? The AppCrashView should show all of your crashes since you installed Windows unless you delete all Microsoft crash reports. Did you check the Event Viewer to see if there's a critical error? The Event Viewer was designed by Microsoft for users to track down problems with their computers and software. It's a good place to go to investigate.
