Brand new install of FSX-SE on a Windows 7 PC.

It freezes when accessing the menus during flight.

 

This is a well documented issue.

I've tried the usual fixes involving various versions of the uiautomationcore.dll in various locations, to no avail.

 

I'm using three monitors connected in surround mode to handle the outside or virtual cockpit view, and a second monitor below handles the panels, etc. FSX sees two monitors. The lower one, and a single extra wide monitor.

 

The freezing occurs only when I have both monitors avtive.

 

If I disconnect the three monitors and use just the lower monitor, I cannot replicate the freezing. It can open up nearly unlimited view windows, panels, spot and tower views, and cluck the menu as much as I want, and I cannot make it freeze up.

 

Thoughts? I cant seem to find a fix that works. Most threads on this topic that I can find online are rather old. If someone has a solution, or can link me to a newer thread that would help a lot!

 

Cheers!
