This may or may not be related to Windows 8.1 (x64 pro), though i didnt have this happen prior to doing the inplace upgrade to 8.1..

 

The particular case that replicates this is that if i'm sitting on the runway in NYC at KJFK (the addon for Manhattan X is active).. i'm running under DirectX 10..

 

If I hit reset flight.. midway it will crash fsx..

 

So far i've tried it without compatibility mode.. with win 7 compat. mode.. with win xp sp3 mode.. in all cases i dont run fsx.exe as administrator (uac on)..

 

The event log shows:

Faulting application name: fsx.exe, version: 10.0.61637.0, time stamp: 0x46fadb14

Has anyone run into this one?

 

Thanks

It's probably best you go to the developer's forum to look for a fix as FSCopilot, FSInn, have specific configurations involved for their applications to work properly.  I did find the following link that is related to your problem though - http://forums.vatsim.net/viewtopic.php?t=29010 .

I tried to just uninstall fsinn and fscopilot.. but the same scenery area when you click reset flight.. crashes.. only this time.. no error.. fsx simply vanishes..

 

So far i think its limited to the NYC (aerosoft manhattan x) area in dx10 (maybe dx9 though i didnt try).

DX10 will have absolutely no bearing on whether FSInn or FSCoPilot works or not.  What works in DX9 works better in DX10.  I'm thinking you have a sharing problem.  Windows 8.1 has more security.  In fact I heard it is very difficult to disable User Access Controls but it is possible in Windows 8 - http://blogs.msdn.com/b/hyperyash/archive/2012/07/18/disabling-user-account-control-in-windows-8.aspx.  Make sure you have done that.
