PMDG 737 600/700 CTD

Here's the situation. Have FSX and FS9 installed on my PC. Recenlty purchased PMDG 737 and 747 for FS9. I already have the MD-11 installed from the same company. I installed the 747 before the 737, which having reviewed some forums can cause problems. The 747 ended up working perfectly but the 737 not so much. I select the aircraft, it preloads the AIRAC, I click fly now and after several seconds at MSFS 0% loading i get a crash to desktop. Windows gave me this:

 

 

Files that help describe the problem:

C:\Users\Darren1\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FS9\fs9.CFG.txt

C:\Users\Darren1\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FS9\dxdiag.xml

C:\Users\Darren1\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FS9\scenery.cfg

C:\Users\Darren1\AppData\Local\Temp\WER7D82.tmp.version.txt

C:\Users\Darren1\AppData\Local\Temp\WER8DC8.tmp.appcompat.txt

C:\Users\Darren1\AppData\Local\Temp\WER90E5.tmp.mdmp

 

And after reading in a few other forums I've tried deleting my config file and starting fresh, tried deleting all the files in the temp folder mentioned above and tried uninstalling/reinstalling the 737 BEFORE the 747. The MD-11 seems unaffected in all of this but should I delete ALL PMDG products and try again? The only other person who may have had the same problem posted in this forum but no replys...

Also is it normal the 747 installer asked me to validate and the 737 didn't?

Also I'm running vista 32 bit unlike above poster. Not quite sure where to go from here.

Just a quick update... Fresh install of FS9 and still get the same "Microsoft FS9 has detected a problem..." and CTD. This is getting frustrating considering the money spent. Can

anyone out there think of something I've maybe missed?

I appreciate your help. I already have contacted PMDG support and posted on Avsim, just wanted to check if anyone around here had the same problem or there was an easy fix i missed somewhere.

 

Thanks again,

Darren

Thanks for all your support guys,

 

finally found a resolution to the problem. It was the pmdgoptions.dll that was corrupt or not working. Took the one from the 747 and had to manually copy and paste into modules and FS9 root directory and now it seems to be working.

 

Regards,

Darren
