September 8, 20187 yr Administrators Look for a faulting module in your computer's Events log.

Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!

Joop On my system I find it by going to Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Event Viewer. Control Panel-> Administrative Tools-> Event Viewer, select Custom Views-> Administrative Events. One of the listed events will be for your CTD. The "Faulting Module" should point to the problem area. Tell us what the Faulting Module is! That will point us in the direction of the proper error, aiding in troubleshooting. BELOW IS A SAMPLE OF WHAT YOU MIGHT SEE! General Tab: Faulting application name: fsx.exe, version: 10.0.61637.0, time stamp: 0x46fadb14 Faulting module name: This is what we need to Know! Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x0000ee3a Faulting process id: 0x748 Faulting application start time: 0x01ce0253dc4b69d4 Faulting application path: R:\FSX\fsx.exe Faulting module path: R:\FSX\window.dll Report Id: 9caf77b4-6e50-11e2-8570-3085a99825d1 If there is not one listed: Faulting module name: unknown, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000, you will need to do as previously noted Charlie AronAVSIM Board of Directors-ADMIN/Moderator-RegistrarJust going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer.

September 8, 20187 yr FSX is a 32-bit application and will run out of virtual address space (VAS) after about an hour or two depending on the situation. Sometimes it will crash and show an error report and sometimes it will just quit to the desktop without a report. The AVSIM CTD Guide explains this and provides some suggestions for stopping most of the crashes (lower settings; monitor VAS during flight, etc.). The AVSIM FSX Configuration Guide provides some suggestions too. Jim Young | AVSIM Online! - Simming's Premier Resource!

September 11, 20187 yr Author Thank you for you support Gentleman, I must confess I’ve been flying for the last 10hrs without any mishap. Have read about VAS must say I have no extra scenery's installed, just default. I think I’ll just leave every thing as is. Thank you again. Joop
