I've encountered some problems. Ever since I installed a tweak by venetubo.com, when flying fsx for 10 - 20 mins so, the computer just stops. How so you ask? it just freezes the screen, mouse, you can't do anything, no not responding nothing, just freeze. Also, the sound comes out as a weird looping sound, much like a machine gun if set to really loud. please help me! Can it be a graphics card problem? This ultimately needs me to force a hard restart, which is really bad for my computer. Help me! Thanks.

 

I tried deleting the tweak but it makes fsx really slow.

 

Specs:

AMD fx 6300

8Gb Ram

650ti 2gb Graphics card, gigabyte. (bought this from a friend, quite old)

500watt psu.

It could be one of two things, PSU and/or heat. My system used to lock up or freeze exactly the same way when it heated up too much. I used to run the system with the cabin open on one side and a small fan pointing directly into it. I have upgraded to a new system, but I still use the old one setup the same way as a 2nd computer
