The problem is in the PMDG 777 itself.  Based on what I read in the PMDG forum, it's some weird Vista memory issue.

FS2Crew V1.1 will add an option so the Weather test is not run.

 

ETA on V1.1:  Next week.

Great news Bryan, and as always your support is unmatched!!!

Not a single issue since first install when the FO does his weather radar check as part of his flow. Not using ASN.

Rick, do you use Vista?

There's a big thread on the PMDG forum about this issue...  it's out of FS2Crew's control.

 

But to re-iterate, V1.1 has a CFG option so the Wx test will not be run if so desired.

I am having the same issue here.  System will crash (showing FSX fatal error) when FS test the wxr.

Running on Vista

I have the latest version of ASN.

However FSX will not crash when the FO test the wxr when ASN is not running.

Any idea?

That is part of the FO's flow after he comes back from his walk-around, and I too, with no weather engine, have no issues. Do not see where the PF tests the wxr to cause a CTD.

This is discussed on the PMDG forum.

 

There seems to be an issue with the Wx Test in the PMDG 777 that affects Vista users.
