Crash To Desktop (CTD) Forum

CTD's are a simmer's nightmare. This subforum is established to specifically discuss CTD's. Please do not place CTD messages in the main FSX, FS9, or P3D forums. If you do, they will most likely be moved to this forum.

    Hello, I have been having this issue for a while, and i've been flying without Active sky since i uninstalled it because of crashes. I re-installed both Active sky and cloud art tonight to see if it works, but it doesn't. P3D loads up, but as soon as i hit ''fly now'' it crashes without any warning, and i can't find anything in the event viewer. And yes, i have Active Sky for P3Dv4. Thanks!

    Hi all, Firstly, my system specs: Core i7 3770 @ 3.9Ghz 16GB DDR5 Ram 2GB Nvidia GTX660 Windows 10 Pro 64 bit ----- I've been experiencing CTDs for the last 10-12 days due to this UIAutomationCore.dll with FSX-SE which is really weird because its built-in UIAutomationCore.dll should prevent these type of crashes from occurring. I've not installed any new addons or removed any addons but randomly, for the last 10-12 days, it's crashing. When I right click frequently or use the menus frequently during flight, fsx-se randomly crashes. I've: -uninstalled my Antivirus, but no luck -I've tried sfc /scannow, but no luck -I've tr…

  4. Good day everyone, I am experiencing a very specific CTD scenario. Any time I fly into our out of TKPK I get a CTD as soon as I pan the camera to the mountain to the north of the airport. for some reason when I fly over it or look at it even if at the ground it crashes and it gives me a KERNELBASE error. I am not sure where to begin as I don't even have any add on airports installed over the area. I tried with default aircraft and the same scenario happens. I tried lowering the mesh, and same thing CTD when near that mountain. I have ORBX VECTOR installed. ORBX GLOBAL. ORBX LC SOUTH AMERICA, NORTH AMERICA Nearby Airports installe…

    When I am flying PMDG 737-800 and using FS2CREW my flight always ends up with a CTD. I have 16G memory in windows 7. Hardly ever crashes except in this situation. My FSX always gives me a good flight even after 3-4 hours, but not with FS2CREW. Thanks Lewis Block

    Hello, in reference to my last post. Does anyone have issues with dynamic lighting in 4.5? Is this a known bug? I suddenly get bad performance when panning around. Lots of lag spikes and stutters. Everything else is fine though.

    Hi all. So I noticed last night that every time I load up a flight at night especially at airports like YYZ or BOS, I get a huge drop in FPS and everything just pans around slow. Not sure what the cause maybe. I recently purchased a new Acer monitor so everything runs butter smooth up until I arrive at an airport like YYZ or BOS . Both installed from FlyTampa. Ran a quick test at daytime and everything runs ok there. Only at night is where I find the issue with FPS. I did research and lowered my AA down to 8xMSAA, even tried with 4x and 2x. Still doing the same. Come to realize is that when I shut off dynamic lighting in game settings, it seemed to have fixed the issue. A…

    Hello, this is a tough CTD I'm unable to solve ... first time since many, many years I haven't started P3D since new year. Yesterday I thought, I want to fly again a bit and made many, many updates: FSLabs, RealTurb, AIRAC, GSX, Orbx Direct. Since then, I get a CTD as soon as I click on an other weather theme in the startup menu. Or, when I try to load into a flight directly, the loading stucks at 83% (creating world wide weather) and crashes some seconds after. Unforunately there's no entry in the windows event log. Steps, I have done so far: deleted all saved flight (in case one is corrupt) …

  14. FSX has been working fine for ages on my computer but the last couple of days it's been 'fatal error'ing It started out by happening once or twice, but now I can't even load a flight. The same process is happening over and over. I open the application, am able to choose my settings (date, aircraft etc) and I get into the game. It loads up and I can see my aircraft for about 20 seconds. The traffic is about to activate from UT2 and that's when it crashes. It causes a fatal error and restarts, and the process starts again. The message I get upon restart says "Microsoft .NET Framework. Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. Exception HRESULT 0xC…

  18. Hello everyone, Just a bit of knowledge share here. In November, I built a new i9900K ASUS ROG Z390-E computer. I was wanting to get ahead/ready for MSFS 2020 and run P3D with something more than 15 FPS in sparse scenery! I was hardly able (1 out 10 flights) to complete a P3D V4.5 flight with my new set up without a CTD. Very frustrating. I saw some issues in Event Viewer trying to fix them.

    Good evening everyone, For the past week or two I have been experiencing the dreaded “NTDLL,” error with the exception code being 374 indicating a stack hash error. I have followed the CTD guide Jim put together to a T and have had no luck. What’s weird about this, is that it only happens in Europe. I have deleted my P3D.cfg and deleted my shaders. To eliminate a settings error I attempted a flight with the default settings the new P3D.cfg set. I experienced the NTDLL CTD eliminating a high settings problem. I have set my bios to default values, reinstalled P3D more times then I can count and ran the sfc/scan now on the command prompt. I do not run an overclocked gra…

Works fine if you go anywhere else , western North America , Europe etc . Happens to stock or addon aircraft , stock scenery , addon scenery . I have tried quite a few things such as removing addon scenery , deleting the FSX.cfg file . I'm thinking it started when there was a Windows update a few days back . Has anyone seen this ?

The former has been installed with numerous aircraft and scenery addons and working properly for many years, although I have not played with it for a year or more as I have become involved in combat flight sims. I recently decided to see if they were still playing okay after the long dormant period.
