    The left outboard display unit, usually the Capt PFD, has had this problem since P3Dv3.0 and since the error is not in PMDG code there is no way PMDG alone can trace it and find it.  LM offered to help find the bug but want PMDG source code to do so, which is an unreasonable request.  PMDG continues to try to get rid of this pesky bug.... we are testing different beta modules on an on going basis.

    Don't use the left PFD 2d popup. Simple.  If you need a 2D popup, use the FO popup. It does not have this problem, or any other popup for that matter.

    Using the F/O side is what I have began to do. Last night I set up a EHAM/CYVR 10.5hr flight with no issues. In fact I left the FMC and the F/O PFD in pop out mode the entire way.  I am currently doing a 14.5 hour flight VHHH/to Flightbeam KMSP, 10 hours and still going.

    I guess I am baffled why there is a different behavior between left and right instruments, after all aren't they same gauge?

    No, I have done a 17hr real time flight in the 747 without a problem.  No hint of anything.  However I messed up my sim completely with bad airport add-ons.....read Mr Randazzo's topic on the problem of supposedly compatible scenery only being given a new installer but without being properly checked for 64bit code errors.

    Maybe go through your v4 Folder and remove add-on scenery, then see how you go.

    I guess I am confused why that would affect only the FO side PFD.

  3. I have yet to finish a flight of 4 hours or longer with the 777 in P3Dv4.

    Either the sim just CTD or CTD's when I click on the CA side PFD, I am looking at trying a flight only using the FO side PFD. There is no error code left in the Event Viewer or APP CRASH. I have had a bglman error code recently.

    I don't believe I am pushing the system anymore than I did in v3

    Is anyone else having this issue, of so have you found a solution. It is kind of a waste of time and disappointing to fly 4400 miles only to CTD on decent.

    Thanks

    In Win 10  it's extremely rare for an app to disappear and not leave a crash log under application events. When this happens it's usually hardware related. It could be a bad RAM chip, a failing hard drive, etc..

    I suppose that I should also ask how much physical  RAM  is installed and whether you have a large enough Windows swap drive.

    16GB RAM running on Win7. FULL Specs are listed below.

     


  5. For the most part I am enjoying V4 when I dont get a CTD.

    After a flight anywhere from 2 to 6 hours with PMDG I will click on a knob or a gauge or use the keyboard to change views and it CTDS and leaves no error in Event viewer or APP Crash.

    Does anyone have an idea what is going on?

    Thanks

  6. Has anyone experienced the dreaded ntdll.dll CTD with v4 I was on an 8 hour PHNL/KCLT flight and had clicked on the FMC, ND and EHSI a few times along the way.

    About 30 miles from TOD I clicked on the CA side EHSI and the sim froze up, the F/O side allowed me to click on it but then the sim just CTD. My APP Crash program said it was was the ntdll.dll, this happened on an attempt to do LOWW/CYVR about 200 miles out.

    My settings were about mid range. Has anyone else had this issue with the new V4 and the QOS?

    Thanks

  7. I am not copy and pasting rte files from v3 to v4, these are fresh rte files.

    I dont believe that Simbrief.com rte files for the 747-4 QOS P3V4 are quite yet compatible. Every time I try and load one in to the FMC the system freezes up.

    Anyone else have the same problem?

    Thanks

  8. I followed Elaine's instruction to the T. When I went to install the H-Fix  I got the following error.

     

    Install failed. This application requires NET Framwork 4.6.2 .......

     

    So I go and find this NT Framework download on the Microsoft site and when I install it it says It is already installed on the computer.

     

    How do I fix this.

  9. So I resolved this issue by uninstalling the 777/737 and reinstalling it and the STARS are there now.

     

    So I am now flying a flight on P3D that I have not flown in 5 years from my new FlightBeam KDENHD to FSDT KORDHD scenery.

     

    Cant wait to turn final over the lake in a few minutes.


  10. Under [your P3D folder]\PMDG\NAVDATA, delete ARPT_RWY.dat (make a backup first), it will be re-built the next time you use P3D.

     

    Cheers

     

     

    Thanks for the help but that did not work. In fact when I try to pull up a KDENKORD in the RTE page its says it is invalid

  11. System .......  LM P3D
    Aircraft Types ...... PMDG 777 and 737NGX

    Trying to fly into my new FSDT KORD but I don't have any STAR options in the DEP/ARR page on the FMC. This is my frst venture to KORD in 5 years.

    Anyone know why and how to fix it? I understand KORD does not have SIDS anymore.

    Thanks

    Randy S.
