so I found a problem… We will see if this winds up being it or not.
My motherboard. Gigabyte B450M DS3H wont take 32 gigs of ram in four 8 gig sticks.
What I noticed was when I installed my new 5700XT I upgraded my firmware 4 versions (I dont update unless there is a reason) Well that wiped out my RAm settings from 9 months ago.
When I tried to turn off XMP. windows would blue screen. Even if I tried to install windows. It would never start. Remove 2 sticks of RAM no more problems.
Strange thing is now I am not seeing the crashes. I am probably going to post on the Gigabyte forum and see if I have to enter special settings for that ram. I seem to remember having to do this.
This game is absolutely amazing. Remember the old slogan of FSX. “As real as it gets” well… until NOW… wow…
running as admin and the page file has been altered before. That is not the problem. Many people have this issue and we found out the problem is with the dedicated graphics card. If I disable the nvidia dedicated, the game runs fine with the integrated intel graphics card. Note: It launches but extremely low fps.
Frankly, this is getting insulting: I updated my support ticket, saying that the patch doesn’t resolve the issue for me. 25 minutes later the ticket gets closed with a generic message about the patch and that they hope it solves my issues. Really?
You’re right, and I didn’t expect the patch to fix anything for me. In contrast, judging from the support team’s messages before and after release of the patch, they hoped it might magically make things work.
Create another ticket and update the “version” in the details… I bet they are just going through a list of tickets and “resolving” all of the 1.7.12.0 issues with a generic message.
Update: it is still crashing after the patch. still crashes fking crashes every 30 minutes, im done with this flight sim. GG all. it was nice knowing you all
My computer still CTD after the patch.
I was in a night IFR-Approach and hit accidentally the rudder where the graphic card had a lot to do loading the new image while yawing and “bam” hello desktop.
If i disable the nvidia graphic card i can run with the onboard intel.
I ran the dxdiag and found out that the intel onboard support directx 12 feature levels 12.0 11.1 11.0 and beyond.
But my nvidia (940mx) supports directx 12 but feauture levels 11.0 10.xx and so on.
If i use the onboard intel i dont have crashes.
In dont understand if this has something to do with the crashes or not, but is something.
My spec intel i7-7500 2.7
16gb ram
Gforce 940mx 4gb
600gb hard drive
That’s how it works. They want you to troubleshoot with the list they sent. It auto closes. Read the bottom of that email if the troubleshoot didn’t work.
I’ve been experiencing this off and on from time to time at very random times. I’ve gotten it figured out though, when I crash, it’s one of two things happening:
The sim overruns available memory (I have 16GB) and crashes to desktop with no error. This happens when I have other memory intensive applications open (Microsoft Teams, Discord and sometimes Edge depending on how many tabs I have open). Closing unnecessary programs during Flight Sim time prevent out of memory crashing.
When hard disk space on drive C: gets below 10GB, the sim is more likely to crash. This happens whether I have rolling cache enabled or disabled. I even moved my rolling cache to the D: drive where I have plenty of space, and it didn’t make a difference. The sim will crash with consistency if you have low disk space on drive C:.
Hope this helps. As long as I am paying attention to these two things, I’ve reduced my crash to desk top occurrences by 95% or better.
