Hi, since I have installed the latest NVIDIA drivers, my sim seems to be crashing on start up on black screen. Should I install a older driver version?

Did you purchase anything recently? What you could do is sort your Official/Onestore folder by date descending, and look for what are the newest folders. Maybe an MP purchase is causing issues? What you could do is something short of a full install. If you have the disk space, move a folder(s) o…

In that case I would try shutting the sim down, move “fs-base” back, then re-test. Really surprised that the sim started at all with that folder missing. I think it may have all the offline textures in it, perhaps other things as well. It’s more likely those “ui” folders were the culprit by the l…

I just wanted to move the fs-base folder back into the official folder, but i got surprised with a “replace files”. I checked in the official folder if the fs-base folder is in it, and it indeed is. Im pretty sure i had deleted it after moving.

Maybe your move didn’t complete in that case? Or did you copy instead of move? If you drag/drop to the same disk it will move, but if it’s from say C to D it will copy, at least by default. That’s why I always right-click drag, so it always gives me the choice of copy or move.

I think its fixed. Just relaunched the game to test if it still works and yes it does, two times in a row i could launch a flight now. Seems like the UI was corrupted. Thank you very much for the help!

I wonder if this is the 4.91MB download you had: [image] Navdata Update (Cycle 2309) News & Announcements The Aeronautical Information Regulation And Control (AIRAC) cycle is being updated with new navdata (Cycle: 2309). You will see a small update to your sim…

Hi I’ve just come across this thread and you have described my issues up a tee the CTD in the loading screen and even the market place being greyed out when it dies finally load and then it crashed straight away. I’m running the m ms store digital download version. I have the nvidia drivers and I…

Just noticed it was the cpu test that was run. When you have time. Plz run again, but it has to be the “Memory” test. Still trying to rule out this as a source of your corruption. looks like that is what @hobanagerik was chasing to get your sim started. Corruptions in msfs too. If you have a bad sti…

[image] WingedDagger2: So what exactly did fix it for you as you have the same issue as me. If you could please read back a few posts. Start with the one that contains the info for running system file checker, and DISM. Run those both. If no love, try the uninstalling, and re-installing of MS…

@KevinGamer6532 I was following along with this because my sim also started crashing during the loading screen. It had worked fine 3 weeks ago, when I last played it. I ended up removing several folders in the Official/OneStore directory, including two Carenado updates from Sept 1st and these fold…

I wonder if this is the 4.91MB download you had:

The UI files being required would have just got re-installed without prompting you. The size sounds about right.
