Prepar3d Crashes on 1070 MSI

[vgbaron 3,609]

1. Do you see ANY video card listed in the p3d config file?
2. Is your onboard video disabled in the BIOS?
3. Is your video card recognized in the device manager?
4. Any errors showing in the device manager?
5. What dos event viewer show?

1: yes, my mistake

2: Ehm, how do I check that?

3: Yepp

4: nope

5:The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly. And this as a bigger explainer:

Don't OC your GPU but buy one superclocked.  Other than that with GPUs it is almost always the drivers / os

Do you get a BSoD?

I had a crashing issue a couple years ago, and it turned out to be a mobo problem.  Changed to a new mobo, and all's been good.  However, I think I had BSoDs, and the codes were pointing to something that led me to the mobo.

Anyway, like you, I only ever had crashed in flight sim.  Every other game, software, and Windows worked fine, which is what I think you mentioned too.

I didn't OC it. Only via the msi app itself, which I just left on gaming.

I don't get an BSOD unfortunately. :S. It would be more useful if I did, haha ;) CHanging MObo will be my last resort, got a new PSU for now. A higher build and watt.so let's see :)

You should try to use WinDbug, DumpCHK and bluescreenview.

Though it looks like you have the exact same entry as this one:

This was from google, but I see there were other solutions such as audio driver.

Don't use the MSI tool - at least while you are working things out.  I have the same problem if I use EVGA's tool.

Is your other stuff on standard clock speeds? CPU, RAM?

Strange that it only happens in P3D. I have a 1080ti and a 550w PSU and no problems at all, so power should not be the issue here. In fact I measure only about 440w on the wall when running P3D.
