ApphangB1 crash

[davidzill 8]

So I did a fresh install of FSX Acceleration. I use lots of add-ons: FTX/Orbx, REX TD, EZCA, FlyTampa, Flightbeam airports, Aersosoft airports DX10 fixer, PMDG, FS2 Crew, GSX, FSUIPC, SODE, AES, etc. The day I finished reinstalling everything I have been getting ApphangB1 crashes 100% of the time. I have done the same FSX.CFG tweaks, so this isn't the issue. This is a total nightmare, the act of a fresh install consumes several tedious hours just to finish with an unplayable program. I refuse to give up. I'm at a full loss at what to do. I'm very computer savy, yet this is getting exhaustive. Can someone please help me figure out a solution before I say screw it, uninstall everything, and spend another 18 hours installing it all again?

In the AVSIM CTD Guide, around page 10, look for how to fix most FSX CTD's and Freezes.  See link in my signature.

You did not indicate where you are getting the freezes.  At startup?  While loading?  During a flight?  If it was at startup, most like you have an out of date module, like FSUIPC or one of the other modules in your dll.xml.  Disable your dll.xml and restart FSX and see if this fixes the problem.  You should never ever reinstall FSX/Acceleration.  Deleting or renaming your FSX.cfg and then restarting FSX is like reinstalling FSX.  Individuals just put too much junk (tweaks) in their FSX.cfg.  High settings, a monitor not being identified, sound card not being identified properly, etc., etc.

Best regards,

Jim

Thanks for your reply Jim. I gave up, uninstalled and removed all traces of FSX. Memory tested and passed. I reinstalled using Nickn's bible. So far so good with a few apphangb1 crashes. I'm thinking maybe running a CCleaner registry scan, maybe something in the registry is causing the hangs and needs to be cleaned out.

So this morning it has been apphangB1 crash city. 4 in 15 minutes. All other programs working fine. Memory tested. Everything is up to date. CTD guide doesn't even mention apphangB1. Here is my latest crash log:

Google AppHangB1, there are a lot of articles online concerning this. As a last resort install one addon at a time, speed some time flying then add another addon and see if you can isolate the one that might be causing the problem. 

I get them occasionally and did a couple of the suggestion I found online and it helped, haven't had a crash in sometime.

Good luck, I know how frustrating they are!

AppHang's are discussed under probable solutions for Freezes.

Best regards,

Thanks gentleman for your patients and responses. I have once considered myself savvy on the topic of FSX crashes to where I fixed it and not an issue for years. I do know what I did, but it seams like the apphangB1 crash is without definitive resolution, and it is probably safe to say some time of process handshake between FSX and Windows is causing the crash, almost like a timeout error. I made some minor adjustments tonight (Edited FSX.EXE to start maximized, bufferpools/ usepools=0 in fsx.cfg, plus the vsync fixes. Additionally, I threw in the correct UIAutomationcore.DLL in my main FSX directory. I'll try setting up some flights in the morning before work to see if I get any more crashes. In the mean time, I'm totally open to any advice or recommandations.

Thanks,

David

[davidzill 8]

Update: Apparently I made have had the incorrect UIAutomationcore.dll in my FSX directory. I downloaded the UIAutomationcore.dll ending in 1800. I was able to successfully load a flight without a crash, which unfortunately at this point is quite an accomplishment. 

[Jim Young 2,356]

If you have Windows 10 or Windows 8.1, you will need one of the old versions in your main FSX directory.  I never required it when I was using Windows 7 and earlier.  But just recently upgraded to Windows 10 and the crashes began.  Thanks to SteveW for setting me straight (for the first time in my life).  LOL

Glad you were able to find the solution to your problem.

Best regards,

Jim

If you have Windows 10 or Windows 8.1, you will need one of the old versions in your main FSX directory.  I never required it when I was using Windows 7 and earlier.  But just recently upgraded to Windows 10 and the crashes began.  Thanks to SteveW for setting me straight (for the first time in my life).  LOL

Glad you were able to find the solution to your problem.

Best regards,

Btw for Windows 7 64 which is the official correct uiautomationcore.dll? I had the one with the last set of numbers beginning with 6. I was crashing everytime. With the 1800, it appeared stable (For now).

I use the 32 bit version of the 16386 version.  Since FSX and P3D are 32 bit applications, you must use the 32 bit version.  I would continue to use the 18000 version until you get a crash with uiautomationcore.dll as the faulting module.  Then try the 16386.  Either version should work.

Best regards,

In the AVSIM CTD Guide, around page 10, look for how to fix most FSX CTD's and Freezes.  See link in my signature.

You did not indicate where you are getting the freezes.  At startup?  While loading?  During a flight?  If it was at startup, most like you have an out of date module, like FSUIPC or one of the other modules in your dll.xml.  Disable your dll.xml and restart FSX and see if this fixes the problem.  You should never ever reinstall FSX/Acceleration.  Deleting or renaming your FSX.cfg and then restarting FSX is like reinstalling FSX.  Individuals just put too much junk (tweaks) in their FSX.cfg.  High settings, a monitor not being identified, sound card not being identified properly, etc., etc.

Thanks for your reply Jim. I gave up, uninstalled and removed all traces of FSX. I reinstalled using Nickn's bible. So far so good with a few apphangb1 crashes. I'm thinking maybe running a CCleaner registry scan, maybe that is the root cause. 

[davidzill 8]

Still apphangb1 central. Things I've done: 

- Tested memory (Passed)

-Scanned Windows 2x's (sfc/scan) - no errors/no missing or corrupt dlls

-updated video card drivers

- directx updated

-tried 3 different uiautomationcore.dlls; 18000, 16386, and the one in my win32 folder (16385). 

One thing to keep in mind, I performed a careful, sterile FSX reinstall after removing any trace of FSX or its addons from anywhere on my hard drive. No other program has an indicated apphangb1 crash, however I know the crash is due to hanging between Windows and FSX itself. I'm at a total loss. As a reminder, I'm operating Windows 7 64. Lol please help!

If you are overclocked, remove the overclock and go to the optimal defaults.  The fact you reinstalled FSX "carefully" and still get the crash indicates to me it is your hardware or overclock.  The fact the apphangb1 occurred while running FSX does not indicate it is the fault of FSX.  FSX just happened to hang up when something in your system caused a hangup. 

Where does it hang up at?  Before you get to the setup screen?  Before you get to the page where FSX is ready to fly?  Did it happen during a flight.

What aircraft were you using?  Where were you flying from/to?

Did it hang at exactly the same spot?

When you reinstalled the "sterile" fsx, did you replace your scenery.cfg with your old scenery.cfg and your fsx.cfg with your old fsx.cfg? 

NickN's "Bible" has flaws in it.  Did you try to install his tweaks?  Don't.

This is strange.  the 18000 and the 16386 versions are the really old versions that some recommend placing in your main fsx folder (but you should not with Windows 7; only Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 users).  The win32 folder... What is that?  I cannot find it on my computer.  I have a uiautomationcore.dll in my System32 (v93479) and the same version in SysWow64 folder.  This is part of the Microsoft.net package and is used by Windows to run applications.

As stated in the AVSIM CTD Guide, you need the old Microsoft Visuals 2005 w/SP1 installed (there's an image on what needs to be installed and the versions.  You need Microsoft.net 2.0 or Microsoft dotnet 1.1 (page 24).  FSX will not run if this Microsoft Visual and Microsoft.net is not installed.  The latest version will not work.

Best regards,

Jim

Forgot to mention that the Microsoft.net version you stated was in your Win32 folder is one less version than the really old 2005 version.  You didn't put an old version of the uiautomationcore.dll in your System32 folder did you?
