Hey guys, I write this because I got some problems with my sim. I still got the FSX Gold Edition with the PMDG 737 NGX and the Airbus X add-on and every two flights it crashes. The sim doesn't respond anymore and to close the program I have to open the task manager. I already avoided to set ultrahigh graphics, applied the highmemfix. I would add that I use smartcars ( Virtual Ryanair ) and that I fly for the IVAO network. In addition to this, I absolutely don't think the problem is caused by the pc itself.  It would be nice to answer and I hope that it is the fsx and not the pc and that I probably should turn to P3D.

 

Thx for any help, Matteo

 

 

PC Specs :

 

i7-6700( not the k version )

gtx960 2gb vram

16 gb ram

256gb ssd where fsx and Windows 10 Home Edition are installed

1to hdd

First check the Windows Event Viewer and determine which module crashes the sim.

I have noticed that it is the ivap app of IVAO that causes the crash. Sorry that it is in French but I think you can see which module causes the ctd.

Here is one solution - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEtMXReRIAk

I watched the video and thx for the advice, but I don't think it answers my question. I would like to know how to avoid the crash of the ivap dll and how the crash is related to the mscvr100.dll that is actually  the faulting module. Sorry from my side if I didn't explain my problem correctly.

 

Best regards,

Matteo

MSCVR100.dll is part of the Microsoft Visual C++Redistributable 2010 package used by developers to make sure their product was installed properly as they intended.  If it was not installed properly, the mscvr100.dll flag is thrown and you have to find out which application was not installed properly or is not working as intended by the developer.  Microsoft also uses the various Microsoft.net packages to make sure your application runs as intended by the developer (a simple explanation).  In the AVSIM CTD Guide, page 24, it provides more information about this and tools you can use to possibly fix this problem.  I know I had a mscvrxxx crash once and used the Microsoft.net Repair Tool as discussed in the AVSIM CTD Guide and I was shocked by the program actually fixed my error!! (A reason I decided to throw it in the AVSIM CTD Guide). 

 

There have been many problems with the IVAO ivap_dllhost.exe program.  Just search Google for ivap_dllhost.exe and you will find thousands of entries.

Thank you very much, this is exactly what I was attending. At first I'll do like everybody does uninstall and reinstall IVAO. If there might be again crashes I'll follow the steps in the CTD guide.

I made a few flights since and I don't have the ctd anymore but this time I have an application hang where there is logically not the faulting module. So I can't see where the problem comes from. Most peolpe says that it is due to the OOM(Out of Memory) crash, but I don't think it's my case because I only run the PMDG 737 NGX with the fsx default scenery and my flight only lasts one hour. Thx for any help again.

The AVSIM CTD Guide provides some suggestions for fixing freezes (collected from several FS websites).  See back section or look for freezes in the menu at the beginning of the guide.  Freezes/hangs are common and could be cause by just too many things.  If it is freezing at the same spot everytime, it is probably an AI program.  High settings will do this too.  Best fix is the delete or rename your fsx.cfg and let FSX rebuild it (that removes any tweaks you might have put there or any high settings).  Change the resolution a little but not any other setting (well, maybe you would like some AI)...  If this fixes it then you had a bad tweak or high settings.  If not, just rename your old fsx.cfg and try another possible fix.

I'll try that in the next days, will keep you informed. fingers crossed  

I've set the settings from ultra to high and I made a flight from London Stansted to Luxemburg. I only experienced a little hang in the middle of the flight but after the freeze I was able to continue the flight. The question now is , is it normal or am I on the wrong way ? Will try longer flights in the next days.

 

Best regards,

Matteo

The occasional little hang is normal (unfortunately) with FSX, as you fly out of one scenery area and into an other.  Fast disks and SSDs help, but do not eliminate this issue.

In fact I've FSX installed on an SSD and I got the issue anyway. If you consider it is normal it's okay for me. Will report if I got new problems but hopefully not. Thx for your support,I really appreciate. Excellent job !

 

Best regards,

Matteo

After the last post I did a test flight to see if everything worked well and unfortunately the hangs continue and this time the whole fsx crashes. The first time it happened , it was about 15 min after I started it so it can't be the hang of the change of scenery. After a second try, it happened about 25 min after the start of the sim. So now I'm getting a little irritated about this. I would think that a reinstall would be necessary but I don't know if it could solve the problem. Thx for any help
