Hello Pilots and Lennart Vedin,

 

hope you can help me , I fly online now since one week (27 hours) already, but since 3 days I have always crashes with FS,

my Monitor turns blacck and I hear a weird Sound, I have to restart my PC.

I deinstalled FS + Software but same Problem. The crash is always on different points in the game, sometimes when I descent, sometimes after clearance? Has someone else such Problem too? And how can I fix it ( I tried already the last 3 days and I don't want to switch to IVAO)

My System:

 

AMD Athlon XP 1.8 GHZ

1024mb RAM

NVIDIA 5200 FX 256mb

Windows XP, Service Pack2

Soundblaster 5.1 LS Live

 

all drivers are updated

 

 

Thanks in advance Kendy

OK, fine.

 

I don't know but suggest:

 

1.

Anyway is sounds like video driver crash.

Is this really not an issue when running offline.

 

2.

Try the extern "SB Host.exe" until you possible fix the problem, could be HostSB.dll since it can cause any kind of crash.

 

3.

Try as a test, some lower demanding display (in XP if running FS in a window) such as 800x600. And other kind of screen changes (disable functions in FS) could make the difference.

I think Lennart is right. It might be a video card issue. NVIDIA has an update driver for their cards on their website. try that out.
