Fatal error

Featured Replies

Hi, when I started using this every flight I've done, a fatal error occurs and FSX crashes it usually happens when I start setting up for descent or when I'm on base or on final. The last time it did this was today and I was about 10 minutes before dissent into Santa Ana KSNA, The two times before that both times I was going into Phoenix The first time going into Phoenix I was about 5 miles from the runway Second time I was on pace for runway 25L getting ready to turn onto Final. And the time before that I was about 10 miles out for Las Vegas. I only had major scenery at KPHX, flightbeam's. The rest were just ordinary AFCADS found on flightsim.com. Other add-ons I use while flying are AS2012, FScaptain, Alaska virtual ACARS and TOPCAT, none of which I was actively using when the fatal errors except UT2 occurred they were just running in the background. Oh and I'm using FSX Any solutions?

 

FSX, only addons, Ultimate traffic 2, Majestic Q-400 PMDG 737NGX with fs2crew voice and Flight beam's KPHX HD, Latin VFR KSAN HD, TOPCAT and FScaptain.

Any help? Sorry to be pushy.

When you started using? Do you mean an addon? Have you checked windows event viewer? Maybe uninstall what ever it is you added last..addon,driver,update ect. and see if it crashes again.

I couldn't get FSpassengers to work, so I started using FScaptain. I've only done 7 flights with the PMDG three have been successful and the other 4 have not. one of the flight with FSC was successful, and two without where successful and the other 3 with FSC froze.

This kind of question or problem most likely has little to do with the 737 NGX. It is likely to be something with your system/setup and most of the advice for this kind of problem is going to be reinstall operating system, FSX, or the add-ons you may be having trouble with. It may be as simple as rebuilding your FSX.cfg file. It may even be that the "super clocked" GTX 660 needs to be just "over clocked".

 

With all the add-ons available and being used by todays simmer, one needs to consider (if possible) having a PC exclusive for FSX, because with all the junk that gets installed using other apps and the internet it gets to be pretty tough to track down crashes and freezes. Most of the time its an anti virus / firewall/ UAC issue, but the amount of variables can be staggering depending on how many other things are being done on the PC.

 

If anybody could help you they would have many questions about your PC, but I think a general trouble shooting forum will have many tips for you to get a better grip on your problem.
