Possible FSX Memory Issue/Freeze

Postby Ferrari308guy » Tue Mar 24, 2009 9:21 pm

Hey guys, sorry if this is the wrong forum, was unsure of where to post.

Recently, FSX has an issue with freezing up on me. So far, this has happened on multiplayer only, but it does not seem to be related to my internet connection or anything.

When I am flying, my computer will randomly stop the sim, and I get the wait cursor (the mouse with the little sand-timer next to it), the computer just sits there for about a minute, and then I get a fatal error message.

I thought this could be a RAM memory issue, but I don't think so becuase it happens at various times, so it's not like my memory is loading up over time, and then it freezes because it is out of memory or something. For instance, it froze while on approach after a 4 hour flight (made me SOOOO mad  >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(), and it just happened today about 2 minutes after I loaded a flight.

Has anybody experienced anything like this? I really have no idea, this has happened on my computer before, and a reinstallation seemed to semi-fix the problem, I really don't think it is a file becoming corrupted or something, because it only happens on multiplayer.

Any help would be great! My comp specs are in my sig.
