Hi,
I have several FSDT airports. KJFK and KORD. I'm planning to buy more in the future because the sceneries are great.
But I'm having a really bad problem. Everytime when I load my aircraft on an FSDT airport, or approach it to land, FSX crashes to desktop, saying "A fatar error occured".
When I uninstall Add-On Manager, but keep FSDT KJFK and KORD installed, I have no crashes at all, but of course then the buildings do not work because Add-On Manager is not installed.
So there must be something wrong on my system that causes Add-On Manager not to function properly.
So I reviewed the error log folder, but unfortunately I'm not able to copy the information. What it basicly says is:
Application error: FSX.exe
Module error: MSVCR80.dll
I search around your forum and found out that this has got something do to with the Microsoft C++ VS2005 Redistributable. I can not remember uninstalling anything of this, I have never done this. I suspect that one of my add-ons has installed another or wrong version of the redistributable.
So I tried totally uninstalling these redistributables, and rebooted my pc. Reinstalled them all over, both x86 and x64 versions. This did not work.
I tried dragging out my dll.xml, exe.xml, and FSX.cfg, and let FSX rebuild these files themselves. I reinstalled FSDT KORD and KJFK, along with the newest version of Add-On Manager from your site.
This all didn't work.
I also have an FSX.cfg tweaked with the HIGHMEMFIX=1. I also have the UiAutomationCore.dll in my FSX root folder.
None of this works.
I think a total reinstall of FSX is required. But I'm afraid that this is not gonna fix the problem, because there is something wrong with those redistributables.
If you have any suggestions Virtuali, that would be great. Before reinstalling FSX, which is a painful job to do, I'll first try your solutions, thanks!
