The first thing to try is go to My computer/Appdata/Roaming - carry on thru to Microsoft/FSX - find your fsx.cfg file ( approx 22KB) and delete it . When you restart FSX it create a new CFG. and finger crossed that should get you going .

Hi Todd

If Ian's suggestion doesn't work please advise what errors your computer reports when FSX crashes?

Does Windows report an error or does FSX?

In case you can't remember or don't know how to check errors in Win7:

Click Windows Start button, Type event in Search programs and files field, Select Event Viewer, under Windows Logs check Application and System.

Google any errors that show up.

Cheers Paul

Yes, that's pretty much what I did when I shifted to 64bit, just knock the problems down one at a time based on a google search for each Event Viewer error.
