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.

    In December I bought the GTX970 graphics card from msi. Ever since I bought it after a while my monitor would go black and then come back with a message saying display driver has stopped responding and successfully recovered causing my fsx to black screen then crash. I have downloaded all the correct and up to date drivers for the graphics card from the Nvidia website. It keeps happening, please help!

  4. Greetings from Norway! Before anyone shoots me down with friendly fire: I´ve posted this issue at the FS-labs developers forum, but figured I´ll try here as well! (Tried registering at the INS-developer forum, but the forum requires administrator approval, which I´m yet to receive.) I took the plunge last week, and bought the FSLabs Concorde X. I've spent a lot of hours at the gate, fiddling with the INS, completing all the steps in the tutorial, and yesterday I was ready to give it a go down the runway at Heathrow, as pr. the tutorial. However, the flight was cut frightenly short, and I never even made the first turn.. P3D froze, and after a few seconds dis…

  6. Desperately need some help on this one. I usually keep my FSX SP2 installation as neat and tidy as I can (fewest tweaks required to remain stable and look good), and I've been pulling my hair out the last week. I was a fan of SweetFX previously and am trying to use it in my install of FSX SP2 with DX10 (Steve's Fixer). I've had DX10 working very stable along with Using ReShade 1.1.0/SweetFX 2.0.7 using the d3d9.dll module. Very balanced settings so I rarely come within 1 GB of 4 GB of VAS usage (except maybe right on landing rollout) and hold 24-30 FPS in almost all scenarios. I'm trying to get FSL's Concorde X v1.31 working on my system (latest version crashes…

    Strange CTD Problem recently. Have been using P3D 3.1 for a while without any problem, hardware`s strong, everything running well and smooth on win8.1 64bit. Yet from a certain moment on, whenever I try to change anything in settings something strange happens. Going into settings, change something, exit via either ok or cancel button, and P3D Stops Working. Going into settings, touch nothing, exit via OK button: Stop Working. Going into settings, touch nothing, exit via cancel button: the sim continues to work.

    I have been mightly impressed with p3d v3 and 3.1 thus far. I have been running both since the launch of v3 and not had any issues at all, simming has been about flying not tweaking, which has been great. Unfortunately very recently OOM's have started appearing. Now I thought this may have been because I was starting to push things too far, but I haven't made any significant changes in my scenery or graphics settings recently. Anyway I decide to monitor my vram usage and for some reason the errors are happening when I still haave 400-500mb in vas left. So it is not my vas usage that has increased but for some weird reason I don't appear to have as much to use. The sim md…

    I have Windows 10. It started when FSX wouldn't start because it needed Direct X. I downloaded an electronic flight bag , with that problem I un-installed it. I downloaded an A2A Updater which in the download was the Direct X. So, after that , I no longer got a Direct X pop up. Now I'm getting a fatal error message with FSX shutting down. In compatibility mode I , have administrator rights. I put my FSX disc. in to repair ( used 2 of the discs. ) I have the Acceleration , but it did not ask for the third disc. That didn't work. I downloaded a uiAutomationCore dll , but that didn't work either. Any ideas of what can be tried next ? Thank you

  12. Recently had a problem of FSX:SE Minimizing to the desktop window every hour on the hour. It doesn't crash just minimizes! after clicking the icon on the task bar around 10 times FSX opens up in paused mode and when un-paused the flight continues from where it left off with no problems. It seems like something is overriding FSX causing it to minimize but I cannot find out why. Im running windows 10 and have checked what programs are running and if I require any updates which I don't. I've tried removing add ons one by one to see if one of them was causing an issue but the problem persists. Also tried temporarily moving the FSX.cfg file to let FSX create a new one but that…

I have installed Aerosoft German Landmark x however when I go to programme the GPS eg I click the D with the arrow through it then when I click the gps knob to enter a destination I get a Fatal error. Does anyone know how to fix this problem. Ive un-installed the scenery now and no fatal error when I touch the gps. It looks a great addon but no good if I cant fly with it. I dont have German VFR airfields. If anyone has had this problem and solved it , I would appreciate how it was fixed.

  19. Hello everyone, So, about 1 week ago, I installed SweetFX. Didn't work correctly, so I uninstalled it. As soon as I uninstalled, FSX began crashing, saying that "SortWindows61.dll" was the issue. I reinstalled, kept happening. Reinstalled again, now it doesn't crash, but it hangs on the splash screen. Since this is a fresh install, it needs to generate the config, but when it hangs (always), it never fully creates it. It only generates about 3 lines. In Task Manager, when it hangs, FSX is shown as taking up 0% CPU, 25-60MB of memory, and 0% disk. Currently reinstalling as I post this. Any help appreciated!

Ezdok starts with FSX but cameras won't change and no dynamics effect (posted this issues in Ezdok forum as well). Second - Virtual CDU does not work anymore. When I start CDU interface (from virtually developer) it crashes FSX. So basically if I try to start any other applications when FSX is running it causes CTD. It was not like that before.

    Unfortunately I haven't been able to complete a long flight in prepar3d V3 because a couple of hours in, sometimes even sooner, the game just freezes. Freezes so bad I can't cont+alt+del to get to the task manager, can't do anything to close the program. I literally have to do a hard reboot of my PC. On short flights it's ok, as long as I'm present the whole time and looking around and what not. I'm almost always using my PMDG 777, and have ASN and Rex 4+soft clouds. Any ideas on what causes this?
