Brief description of the issue:

Starting 1/10/23 I would randomly get the generic error below. Over the past few weeks this error has occurred more and more. As an additional note: I’ve stress tested with Furmark, Memtest 86, all with no issues. It’s something in MSFS that’s all of a sudden just throwing a FIT. Any help appreciated.

I have done the following steps:
Sim to default settings
Grahpics Card to Default Settings
All windows settings to default
Complete BIOS reset
Page file edits / restore
Previous NVIDIA Drivers \ Current (All with DDU / restarts between)
Downloaded and underclocked my GPU
Complete sim reinstall

Completed these steps, from low-end all the way to fully blasted custom ultra.

I hope you get this sorted out.

At this point, I’d hope Asobo is running a dashboard within zendesk that crawls each tag and iterates a counter with how many of a specific tag are growing.

I might do it and present them the data showing how bad this issue has become.

Have you tried a CPU GPU & RAM stress test? And if not, I recommend it. Whilst it’s running I’d also monitor the temps and powerdraw to ensure everything is within limits.

Maybe clutching at straws but it does seem to me to be a hardware problem at a time of maximum power and graphics draw.
