Hi guys,Just wondered if anyone could suggest any reasons for my FS9.1 crashing when i load it? I run the exe file, then soon after the splashscreen appears I recieve an error message about "FE.dll" and the sim crashes before reaching the opening screen?My Specs are:Win XP Home SP2P4 1.8ghz384mb SDRAMGF3 Ti500 - 67.50 driversDirectx 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904)My Fe.dll is version 9.1.0.40901 dated 1st SeptemberCheersHenry

I was having the CTD problems with FS9.1 after installing Holger

Hi Henry,What aircraft are you loading when starting FS9? Is it the default or a new aircraft you recently downloaded and installed? The reason I ask is that a search I conducted through Google found an indiv who had a similiar crash (caused by FE.dll) when flying his aircraft. He subsequently learned that a portion of the aircraft was only an 8-bit bitmap. It should have been a 32-bit or DXT3 bitmap. He converted it to a DXT3 bitmap with no MIPS and he no longer receives the error or crash. So, if you're going directly to a saved flight this may be the cause of your problem as textures and scenery are being loaded at startup.Hope this helps.Jim

Hi JimIf i remember right when it loads its the Cessna...it's been so long since i loaded it up though! Is there some sort of config file that determines the startup aircraft?Henry

Hi Henry,The Cessna is the default aircraft. My recommended solution is probably wrong. If this is the first time starting up FS9 for a long time I would back up your FS9.cfg file first and then delete it and let it rebuild itself. If that doesn't work you'll probably have to uninstall and reinstall the sim (ugh!).Jim
