August 29, 201510 yr Hi. FSX is suddenly crashing for me when I minimise the program so that I can tinker with other 3rd part programs like Active sky etc. Anyone got any pointers for me? I thought about buying a cheap second monitor so that I can do all my messing around with active sky and load managers without having to minimise the sim. From what I remember, Flight Sim has always been temperamental when you minimise it anyway. Thanks. Callum.
August 29, 201510 yr FSX doesnt like to be minimized. If you're in window mode, just hit the window key to bring up the menu and you should have access to the taskbar
August 29, 201510 yr Would you happen to have this file in your FSX folder?: UIAutomationCore.dll Troy Kemp Win 11 64 Pro on 1TB nvme + 500GB ssd / P3Dv5.3+ on 1TB nvme+ 250GB with P3D addons / MS2020 2TB nvme /I9 13900K@ 5.8ghz / 32GB DDR4 3600mhz / MSI MPG Z690 DDR4 with wifi / RTX 4090FE
August 29, 201510 yr Author Would you happen to have this file in your FSX folder?: UIAutomationCore.dll Yeh, I checked that just before. Unless there is a newer version of the file? I have got a two monitor setup now but I'm having trouble with getting my second monitor to work independently with the primary monitor. When I start a flight, the secondary monitor goes black. I want to be able to use my second monitor as a standalone from FSX if that makes sense? Thanks.

There is a small app in the library called pseudo fullscreen. It basically makes window mode look like fullscreen without the bars, and you have your second screen to do whatever
August 29, 201510 yr Author But my problem is that if I play in windowed mode and click anything on the secondary monitor, FSX crashes :(
August 31, 201510 yr Look in the application event log. Are you getting c0000005 errors? i9-10850K, ASUS TUF GAMING Z490-PLUS (WI-FI), 32GB G.SKILL DDR4-3603 / PC4-28800, GIGABYTE RTX5080 16GB WF OC 3 FAN running 3440x1440
September 1, 201510 yr Author Look in the application event log. Are you getting c0000005 errors? I have fixed it (for now) by deleting my FSX.cfg and letting the game build a new one. It must have been one of the FSX tweaks that had upset it.
