September 3, 201312 yr sorry some of you can help me? I installed PMDG 737 NGX 800/900 on my operating system windows 8, suddenly fsx crash, does not work for 3d panel controls of the plane, I have no idea how he can do to solve the problem, at this point I would not be compatible with W8. thank you in advance for your help Fabrizio Tagnin
September 3, 201312 yr 1.Windows 8 is not officially supported 2. We need more information about the error 3. Sign your full name in your posts,or it may be deleted.

September 3, 201312 yr Author The problem is that when starting the simulation I can not interact with the 3D panel, and close FSX crashes, I'll try to reinstall, none of the community uses W8 with this type of aircraft. thanks Fabrizio Tagnin
September 3, 201312 yr Commercial Member This is precisely why we aren't supporting Windows 8. For some people it works great, for others there's crazy problems like this. It's very dependent on your exact hardware/drivers etc. If you want guaranteed compatibility and good performance, go back to Windows 7 64-bit.

September 3, 201312 yr You may want to make sure that windows defender is turned off for any directories that FSX is using, for permissions its easier to install outside of the default Program files directory etc.
September 3, 201312 yr You are running as an administrator? Is this only with PMDG Aircraft? Even still though, Ryan is right, and it is not limited to PMDG aircraft. Windows 8 is not a gaming platform, Windows 7 is more suitable for it. It's designed for mobility (that is why MS only advertises tablets, not laptops). If you can, go back to Windows 7. It's just a matter of luck to get it working with 8. -Tom H
September 3, 201312 yr You may want to make sure that windows defender is turned off for any directories that FSX is using, for permissions its easier to install outside of the default Program files directory etc. Yep, this and admin rights. have Win8 from day1 and zero problems, especially with FSX and PMDG Guenter Steiner -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Betatester for: A2A, LORBY, FSR-Pillow Tester --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
September 3, 201312 yr I run FSX with Windows 8 in admin mode. NGX runs fine. I have however as mentioned above have disabled Windows Defender (My Anti virus did) and I don't have any issues. Are you running full screen or windowed mode? Try both and test. John Sark
September 3, 201312 yr Author the problem turns out to be only with PMDG, uninstalled it works great, I use fsx as an administrator, I'll try to disable windows defender, and 'a pity it is not configuarato for windows 8 as in this system works fine without ever fsx crash Fabrizio Tagnin
September 3, 201312 yr I had all the issues mentioned under Windows 8. I went back to Windows 7 and now I can fly endlessly with no issues. I can only speak for myself, but do NOT upgrade to Windows 8 if everything in your FSX is working as it should under 7. Buzz Martin Buzzell You want me to do what!!! Email me
