Newly reinstalled GTN 750 causes P3D to lock up (resolved)

Featured Replies

Hi,

I purchased the RXP GTN 750 a while back and really like it.  But lately I have been flying payware airliners so I didn't need it, and after a computer crash I had lost the installer.  So today I downloaded the installer and installed the GTN again as I was wanting to use it in a freeware CRJ.  I attempted to load up P3D v 4.5 (with hotfix) and fly the aircraft, but 3 straight times the simulator stopped responding, turned "white", and it said "not responding" in the bar above the menu.  Everything else in Win 10 worked, and I was able to use the X at the top right to close P3D, after Windows asked if I wanted to wait or not (I had waited about 10 minutes before trying to close it).

So after these 3 straight lock ups (same aircraft, airport, weather conditions, etc.) I decided to look in the Windows Event Viewer.  Sure enough it was reported that P3D had stopped responding, and just moments before in each case it reported that GTN_Simulator.exe had crashed.  I can provide the event viewer log.

Would simply uninstalling and reinstalling the GTN resolve this problem or would more support be needed?

Thanks.

Is your Garmin GTN trainer properly installed?

Yeah, you got me to thinking, I don't remember being asked to reinstall the trainer this morning, which had been installed since before the hardware failure I had.  So I uninstalled both the GTN and the trainer and reinstalled and it all seems to be working now.  Thanks!
