FSX CTD in Vista 64

[Marcel de Zeeuw]

Hi

I'm having many CTD's with FSX in Vista 64 Ultimate.

I can easily create them to go from windowed mode to full screen. But I'm
also having many CTD's with just selecting an other plane or changing my
settings.
In the most cases I'm getting no message from Windows, just a CTD. Sometimes
I'm getting the message that Windows has stopped the application and is
looking for a solution. BTW I'm not getting any "running out of memory"
messages

I'm using the most recent drivers I could find and I think to problem are
the display drivers from ATI (Drivers 7.3).

At the moment I'm waiting for SP1, what hopefully will help against the
CTD's or new display drivers.

Any hints are welcome, thanks

There do seem to be some issues with FSX on Vista x64. Try looking in
Problem Reports and Solutions in Vista and see if there is anything there
that points to the cause.

Thanks for the reply

There are only 2 errors pointing to: Fault Module Name: StackHash_086f
Reports have been send but no solutions.
There are no reports from the other 30 CTD's I got, but there was also no
Windows message after those CTD's.

I guess I just have to wait for SP1, otherwise I have to go back to Windows
XP64.
