Weird problem with pc lock up on taking a screenshot

Featured Replies

Been having an intermittent but destructive error during flights when taking a screenshot (windows key + CTRL).

This has recently started to occur with new RTX570 ti and latest drivers. When I press these keys to take a screenshot the whole PC locks up often with sound still going.

There is no MSFS error in Event Viewer but only a System error ID 14. I’ve done most of the usual things- clean drivers install, tdr reg entries etc.
 

Can’t find anyone else online who seems to have had this with MSFS. Any help or advice welcome.

thanks 

Are not using (Windows Key + Prt sc Key).

I use windows key, shift-S. Don't know if this might work for your issue.

Thanks Bobsk8.

Actually I found that one reason for this happen is having the PC's internal lighting on. I found AURA had been set on in my BIOS. So I switched to off and haven't had any more problems so far.
