Have you ever been flying along in cruise flight and out of no where the aircraft view spins wildly and sends your aircraft crashing down? If I fly in cruise flight for more than 5 minutes at a time for some reason the view changes and starts spinning and the aicraft crashes. I have no idea what causes this. If I interact with the program in anyway (change a freq, lower gear, etc.) it will run fine, but if I leave it alone for more than a few minutes without touching anything it goes bezerk. Has this happened to anyone? Is there a fix?

Thanks for any assistance.

Im no computer guru, but i know theres definately a problem running in the background that would probably be causing this.  

Hit Alt+Cntl+Delete once and see if theres a program running that would be interfering with your FS2004

I hope this helps!  

Maybe a screen saver conflict?

A screensaver conflict is  a possability make sure it is off before you start FS. Other than that I am not sure what could be causing this.

Possibly an anti-virus program running in the background?
fsautostart might sort out the problem.
