hi

 

i have recently got a 64 bit version of windows 7 and have been having lots of problems with service pack 2 every time i start fsx it begins to start but i doesnt even get to the main menu when it either says flight simulator x has stopped working or saying a fatal error has occured i have tryed some fixes like the uiautomationcore.ull and running as a admin and selecting the compatabillty to xp service pack 2 and i have ran out of ideas on what to do i would like to ask if there is a fix for this problem

That is unusual FSX almost invariably runs fine in Win 7 64-bit.

Have you run sfc /scannow at a command prompt - if so any errors? http://pcsupport.about.com/od/toolsofthetrade/ht/sfc-scannow.htm

Have you tried running FSX in Win 7 "safe" mode.

What does the event viewer log say? - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-au/windows/open-event-viewer#1TC=windows-7

Have you looked at the entries in the Reliability Monitor at the crash time? http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc748864(v=ws.10).aspx

What are your system specs - windows + r key type in msinfo32 and press enter.

With the above info we may be able to help.

In addition, you should take a look at the AVSIM CTD Guide which provides a comprehensive list of solutions (see link under Hot Spots to the right of this forum).  It also provides a link to AppCrashView which you can download and post the results of the crash.  It provides more information than the Microsoft Crash Report and the Event Viewer.
