Alan Mallows 0 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Hi all, I'm running FSX in Win 8.1 and it takes over a minute to open. If I have the Task Manager running it shows that FSX is "not responding" for most of that time. Does anyone know what is going on here, and if it can be fixed? Thanks VH-DUX VH-DUX Link to post Share on other sites
Evan Reiter 48 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 This is not uncommon. I'd say most users' simulators take between 20-60 seconds to load. If you have a large number of add-ons that get initiated when FSX does, including a large library of aircraft, then it can take longer. As far as I know, there's no issue with FSX taking a minute or so to boot. Just let it do its thing until you see the main screen has loaded.

Alan Mallows 0 Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 Thanks. I suspected that there may be something else keeping fsx waiting. I hope to get an SSD for Christmas. That should help. VH-DUX VH-DUX Link to post Share on other sites
Board of Governors Don Desfosse 33 Posted October 23, 2015 Board of Governors Share Posted October 23, 2015 It helps for sure. Dramatically reduced my load time. Unfortunately I have so much add on [stuff] that my FSX takes average 4.5 minutes to load, even with an SSD Don Desfosse Vice President, Membership Link to post Share on other sites
