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.

  1. I was trying to work my way through Airline2Sim's Q400 training course, replicating it as closely as possible, so I set up the Q400 at EGNX and saved the flight. On a later date, I reloaded that save, then realized they were flying in a particular set of weather conditions, so used custom weather to replicate it as closely as possible (mainly winds at 282/8). Overwrote the save (unfortunately), then tried to tune ATIS. Within a few seconds, I got a CTD. Reloaded FSX and the save...another CTD within maybe five seconds (while it still had the "default failures loaded" banner up, and I hadn't touched a single control). Tried it again with the same result. I then reloa…

  2. Hello, I need some of your expertise on why my p3d crashes every time I run the Aerosoft A320, everything else runs and works fine, I have PMDG 747 v3 runs great, all other addons work fine except for the A320, I've been emailing back and forth Aerosoft customer support but is not helping, they suspect that something is wrong on operating system side not the sim in particular ( ntdll.dll ) files, but as I said every other addon aircraft runs fine. Do you have any idea what might be wrong? I have not been able to fly the A320 not even once yet. Regards

    Hi everyone on AVSIM, i basically have a CTD very time. It's been two days I m trying, as in real life I started from Delhi Airport VIDP to Paro VQPR via VNKT Kathmandu, after my last leg to VQPR while approaching MECHI waypoint, CTD occurs with no errors reported like p3d never existed on this computer. I have referred to AVSIM CTD guide and it helped me very well, I figured out that fresh scenery.cfg doesn't cause the crash. However, upon installing FTX global vector with FSDG Paro the crash occurs. It is worth mentioning that if FSDG Paro is removed it doesn't cause CTD. In simple words, when FSX default Paro is installed no CTD, when FSDG Paro installed along with AE…

  4. I'm really about to lose my mind. I was flying my first CTP and about to get into Oceanic as I was like "let me save my flight". I click save scenario, and then P3D crashes. It was because of a thing called "kernalbase.dll". Anyone ever had any issues with this?

  11. I know that this issue may have come up before. However, when I searched for this particular issue I could not find any information. I have been trying to get this running off and on for about a year now and for some reason it always comes up with the same error. I have created a pastebin of my event viewer which can be found here (http://pastebin.com/sZn84wnj). I have also included a paste of my dxdiag here (http://pastebin.com/UTgehjUT) which includes all system specs and what is installed as far as peripherals and hardware.

    Hello everyone, Everytime I fly a long range flight, after approximately 4 hours after takeoff, freezings start They freeze for around 10 seconds on 5 second intervals and goes on forever until I eventually have to save the flight and restart the simulator. This is bad because I cant leave my aircraft for an intercontinental flight while I sleep and when it starts freezing, the flight becomes 10x slower.... The programs I use are, vPilot, smartCars, FSXWX (Freemium weather engine), FSX VAS Monitor I only use REX Texture direct and addon airports in FSX, and fly 95% of the time in PMDG Aircrafts (737 and 777).

    Dell XPS 8910-Win 10 Home-16GB Ram-FSX Deluxe with Acceleration. I have been searching but can't find a problem like mine. When I load FSX for the first time and try to do anything (select different airplane, etc.) I get a fatal error msg and CTD. If I reload and select SETTINGS/Scenery, then click ok I get another fatal error and CTD. If I keep doing this 3-4 times, then FSX works perfectly. I know there's a way to see what is causing the error but I can't remember how to do it. Apparently something isn't loading into memory until the error happens several times? Any help would be appreciated.

Aerosofts airbus works ok, however i am having issues with the 737NGX, installation perfect, but, the Simconnect file 61259 is causing P3D to CTD, if i disable the file and load the 737NGX it loads ok but no cockpit screens and no switches work, the NGX needs this file to communicate with P3D as does the airbus, enable the file, reload the NGX and CTD. I have tried everything to resolve this issue from reinstalling P3D, reinstalling the 737, following PMDG's setup for P3D, etc, without success. …

    Evening flyers, I have recently encountered a problem whereby my simulator is freezing while intermittently loading air, land and sea traffic every 5-10 mins during flight. The reload takes place with no simulation increase (or on a rare occasion a x2 increase) and is becoming slightly annoying. Some flights will pass by where the intermittent loading will take place and there will be no crash... I have read up on various solutions however, none of them appear to be the cause for me. FSUIPC's sync time is disabled. I use UT2 (recently installed but problems occurred before this). I do use FSRealtime and to be honest I really don't understand how it works. I star…

    Once again, another problem with FSX, they just won't stop! I've done two long hauls in the past two weeks, and have had the same problem each time, where after about 3hrs, FSX starts to freeze up for about 15 secs, unfreeze, continue for about 5 secs then freeze again. I did one of these flights in the PMDG 777 and the other in the 747 v3, si it's not the plane. I have only recently had this problem, as recent as the time i've turned on the FSUIPC autosave feature, and i have a feeling it might be the problem. I have my FPS set to unlimited, with no external limiter, which i've heard could cause this as well. I will do some more experimenting, but if anyone has any …

    Hi there! I recently ran into an issue where FSXSE was not launching. I'd click Play in Steam. It would run as admin, show up with the splash screen and error out. I've used the AVSIM CTD Guide. The error ocurrs in ntdll.dll. All fixes I've seen for this don't work. No new RAM installed. Timings are fine in mobo bios. No CPU overclock. Also done a complete reinstall based on the PMDG FSX re-install guide. If you need more info, just ask! Thanks, David W EDIT: Running Win10. Up-to-date.
