Hello, I have been using flight simulator since SubLogic days. I am a commercial, multi instrument pilot with over 2,000 hours. I lost my medical certificate last year due to medical problems. I wanted to join a virtual airline so I joined VATSIM. Read all the instructions, followed the instructions as best as I could but every time I start VATSIM, my computer locks up. I have a very stable HP CPU with 8GB of RAM. I am running FSX but can't seem to get anywhere. The simulator runs perfectly until I start VATSIM via "Add-ons". I tried turning down the level of graphics detail to near nothing, I used text only to simplify the connection... One time, I popped up on an airport and received taxi instructions from a VATSIM controller, I complied, of course, and the computer locked up. What the heck is wrong? Any ideas will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Instead of running FSInn from the addon menu, try running it externally after you start FSX. StartMenu/FSFDT/FSInnUI
