Problems with " is not responding" and " has stopped working"

[cessnachris 0]

Hey!

 

I have a problem in fsx where suddenly it either stops working or is not responding. It can happen both on startup or cruise. Very annoying to not be able to to any long distance flights without getting an error message. I dont know if its a fsx problem or my specs / system that cant handle it.

 

My specs:

Acer Aspire V3-571G

Inter Core i7-3630QM 2.4GHz with Turbo Boost up to 3.4GHz

NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M with 2 GB Dedicated VRAM
15.6 HD LED LCD
8gb Memory
1000 GB HDD

DVD-Super Multi DL drive
Acer Nplify 802.11a/g/n + BT 4.0

6-cell Li-on battery

 

My FSX addons:

Aerosoft Oslo Gardemoen X

Posky 777
PMDG 737-8/900 NGX
PMDG 747-400X
 

Thats about it. If theres any more information required, just ask.

 

Thanks.

 

-Chris

Run the windows event viewer. It will tell you what it was then google it. I've done this many times and each time I find a fix I get better flying experience. However since I switched to using DX10 a week ago I've been able to fly all day using PMDG aircraft and my settings pretty high. Not one issue yet. I'd give it a try and test it. Set up a long flight and I'm willing to bet you complete it in DX10 mode.
