SpectreFlight Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I've owned FS X for several years, but just recently installed on my Windows 8. The game loads fine, however when I pop open the compass (U) the game freezes/crashes. I've disabled compass on start up as it the game crashes immediately. Otherwise, the game loads and plays fine. Anyone experienced this same issue? Spectre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Welcome to the forum! If you are getting crashes, in order to help, we will need some more info. Control Panel-> Administrative Tools-> Event Viewer, select Custom Views-> Administrative Events. One of the listed events will be for your CTD. The "Faulting Module" should point to the problem area. Tell us what the Faulting Module is! That will point us in the direction of the proper error, aiding in troubleshooting. Below is just an example of what you will see! General Tab: Faulting application name: fsx.exe, version: 10.0.61637.0, time stamp: 0x46fadb14 Faulting module name: This is what we need to Know! Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x0000ee3a Faulting process id: 0x748 Faulting application start time: 0x01ce0253dc4b69d4 Faulting application path: R:\FSX\fsx.exe Faulting module path: R:\FSX\window.dll Report Id: 9caf77b4-6e50-11e2-8570-3085a99825d1 If there is not one listed: Faulting module name: unknown, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000, you will need to do as previously noted No Faulting Module? -> Remove all of the add-ons, and test the sim. If it works OK, then reinstall them one at a time and test. Be sure to test each thoroughly before moving on to the next Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!
