The FSX closes when I choose the PMDG 777 and start the flight. Three seconds before the fsx closes without warning.. I have a computer with 24Gb and GTX 780. I have read various topics but could not find solution. Could someone help me?
Thank's

Maybe its related to this?

 

- Fixed a CTD on load that results from errors in the runways.csv or ARPT_RWY.dat files.

• If you're getting a CTD upon selecting the airplane or pressing Fly Now, please try deleting these two files. runways.csv is in the root FSX folder, and ARPT_RWY.dat is in the FSX\PMDG\NAVDATA folder. runways.csv can be remade using Pete Dowson's MakeRunways.exe tool, found at his website.

From the tracked issues thread.

Yep, worked like a charm. I was having the same issues and found out runways.csv file was missing inside my fsx directory. I downloaded Makerunways.exe and problem solved.

 

Thanks for the help.

thank so much!!! but nothing happens.. CTD still happens.. I do everything..
I'm using Windows 8.1..

Thank again!!

I found that these error happen when using an englih version of FSX with a french version of Windows.

 

The ARPT_RWY.dat is created with the wrong regional settings....

This may take forever before PMDG fix this....

 

Until then, I have to manually delete ARPT_RWY.dat everytime I start FSX

The file is rebuild every time at 6% and it takes 30 more seconds.

 

The path to look at is :

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\PMDG\NavData

or you could just reinstall the pmdg 777

You need to make sure you run FSX as admin
