    I have done many add-on panels for years but this one is a classic..... I had Installed JSG B787 panel and copied file name panel.JSG7879x05 to my B787 TDS aircraft. edit the aircraft.cfg and added the panel=jsg7879x05 {as instructed by JSG manual} load FSX and select my TDS aircraft. Click onto FLY NOW and FSX crashes.. I removed the panel folder to the original TDS panel and works fine,but I cannot get my JSG B787 panel work. What is Gods sake am I doing wrong!!!!!!!!

    For a long time I have had auto updates turned off. Yesterday for no very good reason I decided to install all updates (quite a few) lots of windows security stuff and one for the drivers of my graphics card Nvidia GTX880. Following this FSX is a non starter, I get 'fatal error' message on the splash screen. Now to complicate matters, as always, I had also been doing a lot of config tweaking and had used Bojotes tweaker. I got to the point of deleting the config from FSX to allow it to build another one which I was then going to modify. However FSX would not rebuild it, instead it produced two separate configs, both incomplete. So now close to reinstalling FSX but ob…

    Hey guys, I'm a newbie to fs, had it for about a few months, got rid of all the teething problems and finally got my first 2 addons, the PMDG and REX 2.0. Now I have another problem and it is really pissing me off. I got REX about 2 month after the NGX and when running the NGX everything worked fine but when I got REX, everytime I do a flight longer than 3 hours it freezes, and when I press ctrl+alt+del and open task manager, it shows that REX is working fine, but FSX is not responding. I am not really a computer savvy person so if anyone could maybe identify the problem for me, or tell me what to do to identify the problem or even fix it, that would be great! Thanks I r…

    Hello guys, I have had this problem where my FSX would suddenly stop, most recently it happened when i was just cruising. It keeps coming up with the message "Microsoft Flight Simulator X has stopped working" and then says it is looking for a solution to the problem and shuts down. My laptop is no means the best but it runs FSX really well, i dont have any add on's apart from World Of Ai. Can someone please help me? Thank you and apologise for the noob question. Ryan

  6. Not sure why this happens but I sometimes get a random CTD when exiting FSX while using a PMDG plane such as the 737 NGX or the 747-4x. It doesn't always happen. This doesn't happen with other planes. Anyone else face this issue also?

    Hi, everytime when I land or approach with FsPassengers fsx crashes and says only an bad problem has occured. When I open the fail message in my system it shows that on Windows/Syswo64 the ntdll.dll is missing, how can I fix that? I also tried many UIautomationcore.dll ´s from vista 32 and for win7, nothing really works! Can anyone please send as attached the FSX default UIautomationcore.dll ? I didn´t backup it, because I overwrote it :( I think with the default fsx dll it will work!

    Hi can anyone assist with this please - The last few times I have landed at Las Vegas, while taxiing, I have a Runtime Error' message appear on the screen. There are no details, just 'Runtime Error!, C:\FSX\fsx.exe, abnormal termination' or similar short message. But the strange thing is, the program does not actually crash (thankfully). I am able to switch the error message to the background, continue taxiing to the gate, deboard and save my progress. I have FSX patched to SP2; UT2 2013; FSCaptain; DBS Airport GPS; FSDT GSX; FSDT Las Vegas Airport. It seems to have started since installing FSDT KLAS Airport, but I cannot point the finger for sure at it, as I ha…

    Hey, I've recently flown from Berlin to Vienna on VATSIM, and around the middle of the flight I switched to Google Chrome. When I switched back to FSX, and the airplane disappeared. I could move the camera and switch views, but I couldn't see anything. It looked like this: I was running FSX with REX weather and FS Real time, I used the 737NGX. I had Google Chrome and Skype running at the background. My computer is i5 2500, GTX 560TI, 8gb ram and windows 7 64bit. The simulator didn't crash but I had to close it because of the problem. Any help would be appreciated!

  16. Hi, I was flying the F1 B200 around the New York area yesterday. On my third leg (EWR-PHL), suddenly a windows system sound (two-note low-to-high pitch sound, it's the default for new mail in Live Mail) started going off every 5-10 seconds or so. A minute or two later, FSX kindly informed me that it was no longer interested in flying. I haven't suffered any CTD's on this computer before, and I've certainly never heard of the combination of windows system sound going off followed by a CTD. Any experiences? Any suggestions or solutions? Unfortunately I didn't note down any error messages (if there was any). EDIT: I have an i7 3820 running on 4.6GHz, my system shouldn't …

    Hi All, Ok before I get flammed, yes I know what I am doing is a little out there and realize this may never work all that great. Recently I purchased a Mac mini (i7, Intel 4000 HD GPU, 4GB RAM) and have since installed a Windows 7 partition via bootcamp. Windows 7 is x64 and is running native, not virtualized inside of OS X. FSX runs fantastic but has the ocassional CTD, especially if I am using something like a PMDG product. I have all of the sliders right, autogen on etc etc and it keeps pretty close to the locked frame rates. Pretty amazing little computer. I can almost guarantee a CTD if I speed up the sim rate, even at 4x! But will get them if I go …

I have always thought it was OOM or just the odd crash because I run ENB but having uninstalled it I still get the problems, here are the errors. I also have my CPU running absolutely rock stable and it has been extensively stress tested and the temperatures are perfect at around 35-40c idle at 4.5Ghz, when pushed it generally gets to around 60c, the highest I've recorded is 72c on one core. What doesn't help is the error I get is completely non specific, the faulting module code is shown as unknown or the ntdll.dll so I have no idea how to even begin to troubleshoot …

  22. Do StackHash errors only occur on machines with overclocked CPUs? Are they, in fact, hardware related at all? I'm still getting them but I've ordered two memory sticks total 8GB to replace the existing two sticks total 4GB. I bet it doesn't cure the problem but the extra memory won't hurt. I've been Googling these errors and nobody seems to know what really causes them and as for anyone coming up with a fix - well forget it! I cannot understand how this can suddenly start on a machine where nothing is changed, apart from Windows up dates and which has been running FSX perfectly for over two months and this only happens when running FSX.

    Hi all, I've been getting the same CTD for a while now, and I'm happy that it is just one file causing all of the CTDs and not other common ones that can usually be fixed by the UIAutomationcore.dll. The problem that persists for me is that randomly in the flight, and almost always during cruise or in the early stages of the descent, my simulator stops, then the windows 7 loader / spinner comes up and tells me a fatal error has occurred. I go into the event manager and see that it is the terrain.dll file again. I've tried everything that I have seen so far on the forums; dropping the UIAtuomationcore.dll file into the main fsx directory, installing new drivers for my gr…
