My problem is that when I try to download a file from the avsim library the computer shuts down and then restarts all by himself!!
I 'm angry cause now I can't download nothing that I want (and I want many things..)..Does someone actually know what should I do???

I'm having the same problem. I'm not sure what to do because no one has replied to my other thread.

Yesterday I tried to download a plane from Aeroplane Heaven and it worked. I think that I can't download files only from Simviation and Avsim...
That's really bad

Yup, you can download just about ANYWHERE except Simv and avsim. Flightsim has a lot of good stuff you should check it out. Although my computer doesn't crash it's still annoying.

If you're downloading large amounts of data from the same source some ISP's will block those sources ..... even if you are on so called "unlimited" packages you may have your bandwidth and speed capped and an effective way of doing this is to block sites that are frequently downloaded from.

I thought of that the other day. Because I only downloaded from SimV and Avsim...I've tried a few fixes from MS but it didn't seem to help.

Seems like that would ship a "404" error, but it shouldn't shut the machine down. Have you messed with any settings in you bios? What kind of machine are you on?

Backing up is ALWAYS a good thing to do anyway, but don't be in such a hurry to reformat.(unless you have nothing to lose) Have you changed or upgraded any hardware lately?

My dad wanted to change the RAM but it was a DDR2 not a DDR1 so it we kept it just like it bought it
