FSX crashes after loading PMDG 777

Hi,

 

so everytime I load PMDG 777, it shows up for maybe a second (virtual cockpit) and then the game shuts down to desktop, NO ERROR MESSAGE! It just disappears. 

 

Doesn't matter which airport etc. Also this doesn't happen with any other aircraft (as far as I know), PMDG 737NG works just fine.

 

My specs:

ASRock H97 Anniversary

Intel Core i5-4590 3,3 GHz

MSI NVIDIA GTX960 OC 2GB

8 GB RAM (2x4)

Windows 10 x64

 

Did anyone come across the same problem? I've got everything up to date, all service packs etc. I do have some other addons but I actually wiped the SDD yesterday and I tried to install FSX and PMDG777 only. Still the same issue.

 

Thanks in advance for the answers.

 

Cheers,
Thomas

If you had another aircraft loaded and then went into the menu and selected a PMDG aircraft, you will most likely get a crash. Known issue. PMDG does not recommend this procedure and you select the aircraft at startup.

 

If that did not happen, then you need to send us an AppCrashView report and/or Event Viewer report - See AVSIM CTD Guide, page 1 and 2. Link to guide is in my signature.
