Well, (at least in my case) the updater popups were the root cause of my freezes; Malwarebytes and for a while Avast (which I got rid of in favor of a less invasive antivirus app) were the usual suspects. When I'd go to the Task Manager after the freeze to kill the FSX:SE app I'd see that the updaters were running (booooo! :( ). So, I turned off the updater notifications and haven't had a freeze since. I also ran msconfig and did a Clean Boot and turned off all services that weren't necessary, which not only freed up more memory, but when I rebooted in that "cleaner" configuration, also gave my FSX:SE a slight boost in performance/frame rates. Just a few ideas. :) Happy Flying! APUtech

Hi. Are you running any software in the background while flying FSX:SE that has automatic updates or prompts you that an update is available? APUtech

Oddly enough, I got FSX:SE in March and 250 hours later I haven't had a single FSX:SE crash. Do you run the Steam Edition of FSX, too? DTG has announced that they're currently working on a nex-gen sim to fill the void left by FSX. No word on when it will be released. APUtech

Flying without AP does it for me. :D
