Yeap 9.1 patch installed .  I have been flying perfect for a couple of years until now! I haven't made any changes to my flight sim or my computer.

I could also be an overheating issue. Have you ever cleaned the fans and heatsinks inside your computer case?

Have you checked that it's not your Missus/Girlfriend/Whatever?, pulling the plug out to remind you that it's time to go shopping for Groceries/New Settee and Curtains/New Dresses, shoes and handbag/Their Birthday-Anniversary present/and anything else they tend to think of at the last minute... ::)...?

...it 'appens, you know...;)...!
