I'm pulling my hair out here. Can anyone help? I have a fairly mega FSX setup. I use a lot of Orbx products. My problem is odd & is as follows.
Say for instance I am flying around say UK, NW USA or Norway then I get no problems. I also get no problems from flying in most other locations too. Anyway, recently I bought the latest version of Orbx vector which really made a difference. I thought I'd try & fly around Bergen as I went there a couple of years ago. This looked excellent. I then thought I'd check out some Greek islands. I selected Naxos as an airport, (It could have been Athens or Skiathos etc.) The airport loaded but after a few seconds my Track IR had stopped as well as one of the Axis on my joystick. I then shut down FSX BUT it did not shut down properly!! The main screen turned black, (Ipressed escape & returned to desktop. However the FSX icon was still in my task bar. I went to task manager & found that FSX was still running although I could not switch to it. The task manager did NOT say that the sim had stopped working. If I shut down FSX in task manager & then reloaded FSX then the sim works again unless I go to one of the Greek islands. There may be others but without checking them all I really can't tell. All I know is that the sim seems to work in what I perceive as most areas.
Can anyone shed any light on the troublesome problem? I really want to try & escape a re-install as my FSX dir is 170GB!!! (YIKES)!
