joeenzone Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I have a new computer that I purchased for gaming and it has Windows 8.1 Operating System. I loaded FSX Deluxe Edition and then the separate Acceleration Expansion Pack. When I launch the game it runs for a minute or two and then it freezes up. I tried installing it in a different directory and still no success. Anybody have this type of problem that they have worked through. I will welcome any advise or suggestions.

mrzippy Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Post the error you are getting from your Events viewer. We need the faulting module to figure out what's causing the crash. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorgen.s.andersen Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 I have been running FSX Acceleration on Windows 8 and 8.1 for about 1 1/2 years now, and haven't had a single crash. There's absolutely nothing wrong with Windows 8/8.1.... except maybe the ##### interface Microsoft put on it..... Jorgen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pvarn Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 " I tried installing it in a different directory" This technique does not solve crash problems and is a waste of time using it for that. As MZ says, until we see the Event Viewer report, you will not get any progress on this. "Anybody have this type of problem that they have worked through." If you use the forum search tool, you'll see thousands of messages just like yours and the solutions they have applied. Most of these problems are unique to the user's decisions they made, software and add-ons they use and settings. There is rarely a one size fits all for crashes. The good news is it's not the fault of FS or the OS, but the decision you made and how you are using your computer. The only exception to this is the uiautomationcore.dll fix problem with is typical on 64 bit computers where they do not crash right away. -Pv- Tags: Event Viewer Win8 crash FSX Acceleration upgrade 2 carrot salad, 10.41 liter bucket, electric doorbell, 17 inch fan, 12X14, 85 Dbm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimboa Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 "The only exception to this is the uiautomationcore.dll fix problem with is typical on 64 bit computers where they do not crash right away." This DLL has been crashing on my FSX that I just installed the other day. Is there a solution to this? There hasn't been a specific pattern of behaviour.

il88pp Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 jimboa, Very often the search function (top of page) is extremely usefull. This one is harder to search for maybe. (Probably mostly questions, not many posts with links as answers.) There is an explanation and links in post #5 in this thread: https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?278401-Need-Technical-Help-With-CTD-Problems&highlight=SysWow64+folders [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fxsttcb Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Control Panel-> Administrative Tools-> Event Viewer, select Custom Views-> Administrative Events. One of the listed events in the source column will be for your CTD. Highlight them with the mouse and look below. On the General Tab will be a synopsis of that highlighted/selected event. Look for the Faulting module name: If you are getting UIAutomationcore.dll errors, put the UIautomationcore.dll version 6.0.6001.18000 or UIAutomationCore.dll version 6.0.5840.16386 in your main FSX folder. Nowhere else. FSX will find it there and use it, without affecting any other programs. If UIAutomationcore.dll is not the faulting module that won't help. Paul, That thread you linked only confused me. What was your point?
