Thanks, Geoff. Was hoping to avoid all of the re-loading; however, I should have deduced I would need to. I did get FSX back up and stock aircraft working. Re-loaded an A2A Cessna 182 w/ no apparent issues. Next on to the PMDG aircraft and all my ORBX scenery....dread. Thanks for the reply. v/r Carter Mansfield

Oh, sorry. Been a while since I've actually needed support. Things were running smooth as silk....and then....crash. I'll post this over there. Apologize for my lapse in etiquette. Carter Mansfield

I recently had a drive crash. Not one where I have FSX or Prepar3D; however, the drive crash necessitated a reinstall of the OS, WIN 7 Ultimate. This obviously effected my register. Finally got FSX reinstalled to its own drive. In the FSX menu, I can see all my PMDG aircraft, I can select them, it asks for the dll permissions to which I say yes, but then asks for the license. I input the license for the corresponding aircraft, but I receive an error. What am I doing wrong? Will I have to reinstall all my PMDG aircraft and liveries? Thanks for any help. Carter

Yup. Working here too. Strange. Wonder what the problem was.

Website. And received email that the ticket was received. We shall see.

Gotcha. I sent in a ticket to HiFi. See how fast they respond.

No luck here either. ASN will not connect says it is downloading weather, but nothing. Cannot even access historic weather...locks up the program. All were working fine last night. Anyone know what the problem is?

Yes I use the same resolutiom for both. Any other ideas?

No one has found a solution to this? I have the same problem. When pressing alt + enter or even more annoying, when accessing any of the menu items for instance flight planner, when I return to the sim....black screen in fullscreen and windowed mode. Tried different drivers nothing.

I have the exact same problem with the GTX 280...quite annoying. Only problem, I haven't seen anyone suggest a fix. People have recommended switching drivers, but to which ones. There is so darn many of them. Would love a solution to this.

gman!, thanks for the tip. Alright. This may be nothing, but I set up a flight at KSEA near dusk. I let time pass naturally and after dark all AI were still visible. Flew around a bit in the default Jet Ranger staying near the airport trying to task the system. No issues. Only flew around for about 30 minutes. I didn't change a thing. Wanted to see if I could duplicate the problem. Even tried the alt + enter switch several times with no issues. This is so frustrating. I'll try it again with a more complex aircraft like the Level-D 767. Funny thing, I even had other processes running in the background. I remember going through this with FS9; however, I had a much weaker system then and it didn't take near as long to get FS9 running decent.....well tolerable.

Really. OOM with an i7, 8g RAM, and the Nvidia GTX280. I suppose it can happen. Haven't played with those buffer pools before. I've done a from scratch re-install following Nicks post to the letter. Suppose I could try a repair install. Thanks for the info regarding the ATR props. I can check that one off.

My AI program is by Just Flight and is called Traffic X (photo of manual 1st page below). Are they the same? They have similar names. From every thing I've read, all the AI are designed specifically for FSX.....no FS9 models/textures. Did they lie? I know it's hard to fathom. Should I delete Traffic X and acquire some other AI program?

It's not just addon AI, it's add on flyable and every now and then, default planes.

Every airport and in flight at various altitudes. Switching from windowed mode to full screen exacerbates the issue, as well as brings on even stranger video issues. I have no add-on scenery as far as airports or geographic areas and just rebuilt my .cfg file. The only add-ons I have at the moment are Level-D 767 for FSX, ATR for FSX, and Traffic X. I'll try the shadows off even though I hate not having them.
