I've been having this problem lately which happens once every few flights where if I go to external view and pan around, when taxiing at an airport for example, my screen might freeze, and then a few seconds later, MSFS shuts down. If I go into event viewer, I see what the title of this topic says. 

 

This happened just now when taxiing for takeoff at LAX in the aerosoft CRJ. I get smooth frames locked at 30, then when I went to external pan view, my frames dipped to about 26 to catch up back to 30, and then it froze and crashed. Again, this doesn't happen every flight. Just every now and then. But seems to happen more at heavy airports like LAX, LGA, JFK. I have 32 GB of RAM and when I am running MSFS, my task manager shows I am using about 19GB of RAM. I also have an Nvidia 3070 RTX. 

 

Hoping some might have some reason for this problem. 

 

Thank you

Habe you overclocked your 3070? That’s the GPU driver crashing. 

I had this exact same issue for months.  Anytime the views moved, especially the external ones, I'd risk a CTD.  The last SU8 update seemed to resolve a lot of them, but they still happen from time to time.  What I did quite simply was to turn off the quick panning when in external view.  By default, the sim set my hat to quick move the view when external.  Now I just pan with the mouse, and like magic, my crashing is almost completely gone.  It is kind of a silly "fix" but it works. 

I have a 3070 too and I wonder if there's something specific to that card.  People will all try and point to hardware problems, but I believe it is the sim.  I can play other games and have zero issues, and also why did SU8 fix a lot of my crashes? 

I also run a 3070, and I get these crashes infrequently, as well. Could not pinpoint it to specific view behaviour or panning though.

I do not have it overclocked, no. Seems as though from the responses above, it could be a 3070/sim thing.

I had this many years ago a long time. Tried all things, new grafics card etc. 

 

In the end it was a faulty RAM

First, I would try a different driver version -- the latest probably.  If you're using the latest, try an older driver.  Do a clean driver install.

If it is still unstable I would temporarily reduce my resolution down to 1080p and do a couple of flights -- try to replicate the failure.  If you're using any nvidia profiles I would temporarily disable them and use all default nvidia control panel settings. 

Anyway, these would be my starting points if trying to diagnose.

Could be related to some background process. I have/had this with my AMD drivers (timeout) and only with MSFS. With my previous 5700xt but now also once in a while with my current 6800xt. The background processes I have to quit before running MSFS are the LogiTech ones for my wireless keyboard/mouse.

Yep - I've had this in the past with various cards through the years.  The OP should try a new/different driver and use a driver cleaner like DDU or similar.
