FSX + Windows 8 = Constant crashing.

Featured Replies

FSX constantly crashes, every single day, it's either when I'm departing from an airport or when I'm ta cruising level. 

I've tried six flights in the past two days and ALL of them crashed whilst I was cruising.

 

Here's the errors I got.

Obviously, your crashes are being caused by FSInn. Check out their support forums - http://www.vatsim.net/pilots/pilotsclients/fsinn/. They may have an updated version that works for Windows 8 or others have reported problems too. Most likely the cause is a Simconnect issue as it needs to share ports in order to make FSInn function correctly. Go to your main FSX folder, right click the folder and select properties. Open up the Share Tab. Make sure the folder is being shared and make sure the FSInn folder is being shared too.

I would advise you to drop FSInn completely and pick up on vPilot. Its very light on performance, simple and straight forward UI, plus its being always worked on and improved for even better functionality.

So can we come to a conclusion that FSInn is causing the crashing on this log?

 

 

 

  fsx.exe       10.0.61472.0       475e17d3       FSInn.ocx       1.2007.508.1       464077c7       c0000005       0007fbcd       1f44       01cfcab797694117       C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\fsx.exe       C:\PROGRA~2\FSFDT\FSInn\FSInn.ocx       abfa9a80-36b1-11e4-beef-7054d2597978              

That is correct.

Great, I'll try use VPilot then, thanks for all  the assistance everyone.

Looks like the issue is this arising, this time it just automatically closes on it's own, didn't manage to find any errors, only logs I have are these:
 

A program accessed information from a location sensor or default location
 
FriendlyName=Windows ;
ImagePath=C:\WINDOWS\Explorer.EXE;
PID=5672;
Username=JOAOPC\Joao;
SID=S-1-5-21-2075658502-1541188355-3690146550-1001
 

The Windows Location Provider has successfully started
The Windows Location Provider has successfully shutdown
 
Any ideas now?

A program accessed information from a location sensor or default location

But this issue only occured ever since I changed to VPilot and moved FSX out of the original alongside setting the sharing thing, usually it'll go on 'Not responding', but this time it just randomly shut down.

 

Are you sure this is an issue though?

According to your error, there is nothing wrong with FSX. This is a problem with Windows.

I cannot thank you enough, I finally managed to perform a VATSIM flight without any problems at all. Once again, thank you for all your help!

It has seemed to made a return once again with a different error

Sorry to hear you are still having problems.  The faulting module was the kernel32.dll which provides a clue but not a solution. The kernel32.dll belongs to system memory management. I would treat it as an out of memory type crash. Lower your settings in both the FSX.cfg and display driver. Lower Autogen slider.
