I recently started getting CTD's today and I am not sure why.  This happens when loading the sim.  Up until today I never got it.  Today I installed ASCA and this started happening.  I uninstalled it and still get the "P3d has stopped working" message and CTD.  I can't tell what is causing this because I am not technical.  I checked the log and it said this.  Any ideas?  I am hoping I don't have to uninstall everything and then install again.

Also, when I try to start V4, I get a message saying to go to the task manager because "Another SODE process is still running in the background and to go to task manager to kill the process."

I see this message too.  Means it did not shutdown properly when you closed P3D earlier.  I usually disregard the msg and continue loading P3D.

You received a Microsoft.net (dotnet) message indicating your installation has issues.  It wasn't P3D that caused the crash.  It just happened to be running when the sim crashed.  Dotnets are used by developers to make sure their product was installed properly.

Today I installed ASCA and this started happening.

My suggestion would be to try reinstalling ASCA again.  This time make sure you right click the installer and select Run as Administrator.  You can also try restoring your computer to a date and time prior to installing ASCA. 

The AVSIM CTD Guide has many more suggestions for fixing this problem.  See the link in my signature.  If you decide to reinstall Windows and I do not see why, check out the Windows Repair Program in the Guide.  Make sure P3D is running in compatibility mode too.  See page 12 of the Guide.

Best regards,
