When the sim crashes it asks if I would like an error report.  I thought I would get one to try and help diagnose the problem.

Well I clicked on send report which it did.  Only I dont know where it went it too? as in where the file has been placed on the PC  ???

It doesn't place a file on the hard drive, it sends the info and everything about it to M$.  If you want to personally work on the problem, I would make the error message happen again and then call your tech support line and read the report to them (there is usually a link that will let you read the error report).

Gix

I think you'll find it's dxdiag.xml which is in the same folder as your fs9.cfg file.

You can look at xml files using Notepad ir Wordpad.

dxdiag.txt is a file created when you run the DirectX diagnostic prog manually but although the name is similar, this is a completely different file
