To Sim. pilots and any one who can help,

Every time I fly the DC-3 and start to adjust its avionics along with GPS, the plane freezes up in flight. But if I fly it with just GPS its Ok, and helps here in stopping these freezze ups?

I have upgraded my old computer to XP 2400 AMD, put in the only Viedo card the my motherboard would take a PCI 5200, 128 MB card and use 512 Ram.

Thanks JFG 123

Does this happen only with DC3 or does it also happen with other planes?

So far just two planes do this DC-3 plane and the WACO biplane, which when I fly it form the outside of the cockpitt.
In my own attempts to fix this problem, I did note that  in the start up files it showed the old XP1800 ,so I went to BIOS setting and set it up to XP 2400 at about 1.9 gig.

Now I am wondering how the BIOS got changed or if I forgot to save the changes to the new setups. could this be my problem? I am going to test it out today.

Any more helps here?
