FSX not responding

Featured Replies

Hi.

I am having problems with my FSX not responding. It will boot to the start screen and then hang. When I go into task manager it says not responding. I have uninstalled the sim and reinstalled but with no success. Anyone have same or similar problems? :(

 

regards Steve

  • The most likely reason is that the post was off topic.
  • The topic could also have contained images or a video that were not appropriate to the original forum it was posted in.
  • The images might not have been "illustrative" or "explanatory" in nature.
  • The topic could have been moved because we deemed it to be more appropriately placed elsewhere.

ADMIN BOT... Do not PM or send Email.

You need to provide an AppCrashView or a log from the Event Viewer as detailed in the AVSIM CTD Guide (pinned at the top of the CTD Forum).  You need to provide system specs too.  There are just too many causes for this type of crash.  It could even be your video card!

 

Best regards,

Forgot to mention, I have moved this to the CTD Forum where your chances of getting this problem fixed are considerably greater.

Hi

My system specs are:

CPU: Intel Pentium Dual E2200 2.02 GHz LGA 775

Mother Board: P4M890

Ram: 3 GB

Graphics: Nvidia Ge Force GT 520 PCI-E 2GB SDDR3

C Media PCI Audio

HDD: HD1635SI ATA 1TB

Direct X 11

Windows 7 Pro 32bit

D-Link DFE 530TX PCI fast Ethernet adapter

500W PSU

 

i have noticed that in task manager the task host uses 50% of the CPU, (this cant be normal?)

also when i shut down there is always a program that needs to be closed but i always have to force the shutdown.

 

i have started to delete some programs from my PC including FSX, with intentions to reinstall it. i will try running FS9 in the meantime until i get everything sorted out.

 

unfortunately i deleted FSX before i could get a crash report, but i know that is said something like "App Hang X proc...... or something to that matter.

 

not too sure how to use the event viewer

Regards

That is very low.  Should be closer to 90%.

The AVSIM CTD Guide provides detailed instructions on how to use the Event Viewer.

The event viewer might show this problem.  It usually shows something like a program had problems shutting down properly.  Without knowing what program you are shutting down, it will be impossible to provide a solution to your problem.
