MSVCR120.dll CTD with P3D V3

[Lairyliam 17]

well i had replied, but some how, back space took me back 3 pages and removed everything i had typed...

​Sigh.

​Right,
Downscc. Thanks for coming back to me, appreciate you reaching out. i am sorry to say that i do not use the Left DU pop up (assuming you mean the very left screen where the Speed, FMA, FD bars and AOA information is all presented? 

I picked that gem up on the PMDG forums a while back when i first started to have these issues I didn't know what was causing the crash at the time, (before i found out about event logs in Win10). so did it as a matter of course in case this was the issue I was having.   before i had found out what the issue actually was, i regreatably removed all my programs deleted the files and reinstalled everything that i had bought since october (being a new build pc specifically for Prepard) when i started to put everything back i flew each time i installed something, my first issue was after i had installed Opus FSI(used the camera function). so since then i have stopped using it.  it had been fairly stable with only the occasional random unexplained crash (not VAS). having seen the list for 3.2 and its bug fixes i hoped that the problems i was having on my system were done and i would be able to just get on with flying, but alas, it seems not.

I'm all up for a workaround, just like in the real world, fix it with speed tape and send it on its way as serviceable!!

​Guess ill get up in the air and go again, report back if I have any further info.

I had this issue with the Majestic Q400, it was caused by the Nvidia driver stalling and causing a Timeout Detection and recovery error, followed by the error MSVCR120.dll.  I have been having this error since moving to Windows 10, i haven't managed to find a working driver. 

 

What i recently tried and it (hopefully) appears to have worked is to underclock my 980 by 100Mhz.  I managed two multi hour flights in the Q400 without any issues previously i wouldn't have got through the pre-flights.

 

Not saying that this is your issue....

Got to be worth a look tho... I have a 970 on win 10. Thanks for the idea.

Just had a MSVCR120.dll crash as well, probably the 10th time P3D has crashed for me as a result of this fault in the last few months.  Very frustrating especially when its 12 hours into a 13 hour flight.  Even though this is a PMDG thread, I just want to add that the most recent crash occured in a differnt addon

There is an active on-going thread in the LM forum for P3D.  Just avoid the left outboard DU 2D popup,  if you want a PFD popup use the first officer's. It doesn't seem to cause a problem.

Has there been any recommended suggestions to resolve this problem or bring closure to it? What are people doing with P3D and PMDG 773? Not flying it?

Flying every day..., just don't use the left PFD 2D popup.
