As a massive fan of flight simulation, I probably spend as much time trying to sort out problems with FSX as I do actually flying. I read the Avsim Forums with avid intest and marvel at the sheer brilliance of some of the contributors and hobbyist who tirelessly look to plug the holes and improve on this aged software; I am so grateful to these guys for their hard work and ingenuity. I guess what I want to know is, does everybody have a situation and experience similar to mine? I have periods where my sim runs well and then without undestanding why, it starts to play up; its almost like it can only sustain a limited time of uninterrupted flying before you have to try and resolve another problem. Over the years I have spent a small fortune on flight simulation with my biggest investment of add ons for FSX and it has given me many years of pleasure and I wouldn't swap it for anything and I think I have to admit certainly my FSX platform has improved tremendously; my latest issue is that I tend to have CTD after approximately 2 hours flying; I figured this might be an over heat but would it really take this long while flying over featureless ocean? I use a corsair water cooling system which seems to keep the temp well below 80 Celsius and my GTX580 graphics card never gets beyond 60 Celsius so I am not sure why this barrier exists. In all other respects I am able to fly without issue with varying frame rates and stutters issues depending on scenery/airport complexity and manufacturer. If anybody has got any suggestions I would love to hear.............
