evoras Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Has anyone else started having problems since being patched to Service Pack 1? I've had 2 BSOD's in FSX in the last 2 days since upgrading.....anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Newman Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Not had any BSODs, but I'm constantly getting "Fatal Error" messages and FSX restarts. It's getting annoying actually. Never happened before! It seems like a real common error too which (as one might expect) despite hundreds of reports to Microsoft, they don't answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMaestro Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I've been running SP1 since it came out, never had any problems. Cheers, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogtrack Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I've been running SP1 since it came out, never had any problems. Cheers, Mike +1 That said I did not include IE9, which by all accounts has a few bugs in the 64bit version. According to my weekly "Windows Secrets" newsletter, anyway. May have been fixed by now but have not heard one way or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 +2 no problems here, I also did not take IE9, happy with Firefox 4.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r.1024 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Also installed SP1 on Win 7 64 bit without issues. Also running IE9 okay. IE9 beta release had some issues for FSX (kneeboard not displaying for instance) but appears okay now. Regards. Rob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanTenner Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I had 2 Bluescreens in the last days but this is because I got the FSX to use all computing power it can get and I had to lower the overclocking. With SP1 I had no problems so far. By the way, I also got those fatal errors but I think they are because of my FSX-Settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterhayes Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Evoras "I've had 2 BSOD's in FSX " Can you tell us if just FSX crashed or the whole of Windows 7 closed down? Is there any error message such as "STOP", "exception at" "locale id" "event id" or similar? Have you tried the Win 7 "troubleshooter" and "fixit center"? (http://support.microsoft.com/fixit/) If it is a total system crash, in the event viewer there should be an error recorded as well as in the inbuilt reliability monitor. If it is a total Windows system crash it may not be directly related to FSX but some system/hardware/software issue that occurs because FSX is running. What are your sytem specs? Are you running 32 or 64-bit Win 7? Regards PeterH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heiko Glatthorn Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Bluescreen is triggered most likely by an unstable system or faulty RAM. Really... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't tried the Win 7 "troubleshooter" or "fixit center", but I'll check them out. I'm running W7 64-bit. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heiko, I ran the built in Win 7 Memory checker and it came back clean. My system has been stable on W7 for over a year and the only changes have been SP1 and Dirt 3.

Heiko Glatthorn Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 Do you use the Windows automatic GPU driver update option ? This one can cause all sorts of problems. Anyways, i would try a clean GPU driver install. Do you have a nVidia or AMD graphic card ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
