I was just trying to make the point that most anything can have a error or two, if one wants to look hard enough, and is that comment going to be helpful.

Keep up the good work, I really liked your video.

 

Fair point.  Thanks!  Feel free to PM if you spot anything.

Olli4740, I noticed my AUTO CRUISE kicked off when my AUTO TIME COMPRESSION stopped by itself right before T/D. I wonder if that is normal.

 

 

I'm not sure about that: I've seen the compression kicking out and back in, but the "general" auto cruise mode would remain engaged all the time.

Thanks Kyle, also Michael, and olli4770.

 

I think I compounded my problems by adding scenery after a successful landing at Dubai with the addition of Fly Tampa-Dubai Rebooted and Aerosofts Maldives. Been turning down my GTX550TI settings, loading only the necessary scenery from FSX, but I've flown three flights and get a CTD right before T/D or a little earlier everytime.

 

Hopefully my new GTX770 4GB OC arriving today will solve the problems , so far nothing is working that I've tried on the Crash To Desktop Guide. I will let you know .

Update:

 

Just did the cruise and descent phase with auto-cruise engaged. It didn't kick off (clock remained green), but time acceleration would go on and off as necessary (changes in heading and/or vertical speed). So I cannot confirm your findings of auto-cruise switching off 'completely'.

Popped the GTX 770 in , same deal CTD right before T/D Top of Descent. I guess I've got to get Aersofts "Maldive" folder out of there along with the Fly Tampa Duibai Rebooted, tried disabling Maldives and the 777 is in the grass, no runway. I have the UIAutomation. dll, the PMDG version, I hear there's two versions. Oh well, may get it after awhile. Sure getting an education on the inner workings of a computer. :Shocked:
