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. So I did a flight from KPHX to KSEA today using Avialsoft's EFB. When it was producing the flight plan it said there was an error with KSEA, that some of the runways were bad. 2 and half hours into the flight, just before Top of Descent, I looked down and set a DME station in the NavCom and reached up to the MCP to turn the course nob and suddenly the sim just froze in place. Sound was still playing. Frozen screen. EFB paused on the Display unit. I got no crash message. No Fatal Crash screen. No FSX has stop responding. Just solid frozen screen. I had to CTRL-ALT-DEL to the Task Manager and it showed FSX not responding in the manager. I had to manu…

    Hi, My fsx kept not starting, so I reinstalled FSX. Now, whenever I choose a plane, and press "FLY NOW" there is no loading screen and there is a Fatal Error. Yes, I have the AutomationCore.dll in the FSX main folder. What can be the issue?

    Hi, been lurking in the forums for some time. I've doing a lo tflying recently with NGX but switched today to the Aerosoft Airbus X for a change (v1.15 with hotfix 18c). All day the sim has been going for about 10 minutes then freezes and brings up "FSX has stopped working". Spent most of today trying to resolve to no avail. The event log suggests this is to do with FSX itself (I think) but having just tested, no other aircraft has the same problem. Very strange. any suggestions...please. I have tried with and without UIautomationcore by the way. Any help gratefully received. Version=1 EventType=BEX EventTime=130267618512185600 ReportType=2 Consent=1 UploadTime…

  5. Hi all i have a strange problem with a freeware AC, boeing 737-200. Airplane works fine, all the things works fine, i have 30 fps into cockpit, but when desingage AP i hear the sound ( default sound i guess) of desingage and FSX freeze and then crash to desktop. I had a look in the win7 registry and i see that error is caused by a dll in 'gauges' folder. If i delete this dll half panel of the aircraft obviously disappear. Someone have an idea to solve that? Thanks for help!

    According to AppCrash my FSX keeps crashing around RCTP due to this module: StackHash_3e9b I can use FSX with dx10fixer free of problems in other places, but when departing RCTP at some point it crashes. Sometimes when loading, sometimes already in flight. I have changed AFCADs, used different a/c and weather programs and eacht time AppCrash reports the same module to be the culprit. A search on my pc did not disclose it. Anybody any idea where to look for this module or which program creates it? Complete error log below.

  11. Hi thanks for helping me out, I've encountered some problems. Ever since I installed a tweak by venetubo.com, when flying fsx for 10 - 20 mins so, the computer just stops. How so you ask? it just freezes the screen, mouse, you can't do anything, no not responding nothing, just freeze. Also, the sound comes out as a weird looping sound, much like a machine gun if set to really loud. please help me! Can it be a graphics card problem? Thanks. Deleting the cfg file and replacing it with the old one, the one fsx made is ok, and I combined it with nvidia inspector limiter and set fps to unlimited and get decent fps without the problem. But i really want the cfg made by vene…

    Hi all, So this time, I'm not exactly getting a direct crash to desktop forcing me look throughout the event viewer for the problem. The problem looks like the picture shown below and it happens at random with airports I have scenery for and don't have scenery for. I have SweetFX installed and I am thinking that SweetFX is the culprit but since it's an obvious problem with graphics, it could really be anything. Any ideas are extremely helpful. Thanks, - Ryan

But since then I am always having CTD related to atidxx32.dll file. I have searched on google and this forum but can not find any solution.

    Hi there,i've installed FSX now for about 2 weeks on a brand new system, but it freezes randomly, without doing nothing particular. It freezes when flying 'offline', it freezes when flying default planes, it freezes when flying payware planes (like LDS 767X, PMDG MD11X), it freezes when flying at night... I have no idea why it freezes :( .Sometimes it freezes after a few minutes, and other times it freezes after more than 30 minutes.There is no particular action that initiates a freezing of FSX. The screen just freezes, and I have to start the Task Manager to quit FSX. (saying: is not responding)I use FSX with Acceleration Pack, FSUIPC4 4.53, IvAp/FSX v.1.9.8, Active Sky …

    I've been pully my hair our for weeks with a crashing FSX. I started having StackHash crashes, and I think I that the problem arose from either the way things were ordered in my dll.xml file, or the file was corrupted. I checked the file in XML Notepad and did not see any errors. Anyway, I moved the dll.xml file to a safe place, and then reinstalled FSUIPC. By doing this I got a new dll.xml file with just an entry for FSUIPC. I then copied the entries from the old dll.xml file, starting with FSUIPC, Orbx and other scenery, then aircraft related entries. It seems that this may have solved the StackHash problem (but FSX always has a way of making a liar out of me as so…

  22. I purchased PDGM's 747-400 about two years ago. But starting yesterday, "Fatal Error" messages would pop up and reboot FSX. It usually starts up after a few minutes at the airport terminal and usually when I change screens. I had this problem when I first purchased add ons for FSX two years ago and only after an hour of flying, but the problem was resolved with adding UIAutomationCore.dll to FSX and had not had a fatal error since. I also purchased FSUIPC yesterday but still have the fatal error issue. This appears to only occur with PDGM 747, but not other add-ons. I use Windows 7. The last add on I purchased for FSX was Fsdt GSX Ground Services but no fatal error…

    Hello, I have really been struggling with out of memory errors of recent. I am not sure what is causing it. I used to think it was the PMDG 777, but today it happened flying the Airbus X Extended on a hour long flight nearing final. I have read through a lot of posts and tried many things, including increasing the VAS on my S drive (where fsx is on my system), and only having the sceneries I am using for that particular trip to be active. Can someone help me here? Greatly appreciated!
