Long Haul CTD

Featured Replies

Hi,

Whenever I do a long haul flight, around half way to 3/4 of the way through I get a CTD. The faulting path being ntdll.dll. The log I have attached was on a flight from EGLL-KSFO in the PMDG 777.

Why does this happen?

Do u use 2D CDU ?, it was confirmed that 2D CDU cause problems so it is advised to disable and not use it.

I had same problem with 777, but with 747 i can do long hauls without any problems.

Yes but I didnt use them in the cruise, how can I disable them?

 

The ntdll.dll and StackHash w/an exception code of 0374 are synonymous.  It all points to high settings but sometimes it can be a bad overclock and lowering the overclock by a couple of points could help.  To check high settings, just rename your p3d.cfg to p3d.cfg.off, restart, and try not to change any of the settings (as you are testing).  My Traffic X has caused this crash too and renaming the mytrafficmil.bgl to mytrafficmil.bgl.off will fix that.  I did a lot of searching on the Internet at all of the flight sim websites and these are the most likely causes and why they are in the AVSIM CTD Guide.

Best regards,

Jim

I have not overclocked my CPU, I do not have high settings nor do I use My Traffic X

Then you have a major problem because I know of no solution.  Do a Google search for ntdll.dll and P3DV4.  The ntdll.dll belongs to your computer system, not P3D.  Good luck!

If u don't use 2D CDU then u don't need to disable those, and apparently ur problem is not caused by 2D panels.

I sometimes use them but normally put them away in the cruise, from memory they were not open during the crash

Submit a ticket and get help from PMDG
