Hi all,

All of a sudden FSX won't open, I click on it, the donut spins for a 20 seconds or so, then everything just dissapears.  Tried running as administator. It's as if something is shutting it down, not allowing it to load. Any suggestions were I should start on this problem. Never had this happen before.

 

thanks,

Brian
