Everytime I play FSX, within 2 minutes "not responding" will appear. Any idea why? Is FSX compatible with W8?

Not sure what you did.  Your report indicates it was caused by the uiautomationcore.dll.  Did you put the Vista version in your main FSX folder to try to fix a menu crash?

 

The uiautomationcore.dll is part of the Microsoft.net (dotnet) packages.  You need to have versions 1.1 through 4.5 installed.  You can check to see if you have all of these versions properly installed by using the tool at the following link:  http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2008/10/13/8999004.aspx.  You should also download and run App Crash View - http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/app_crash_view.html as it provides more detailed information about your crash.  Just copy and paste the results of the report here.
