After checking out the PE forum, I see there are issues regarding the Steam edition used with PE when insta...

Re: FSX Computer Crashes with PilotEdge

For anyone who had followed this post, I've had at least six PE flights since re-installing the PE client, and haven't had a single computer crash. Hard to believe from the symptoms, but this appears to have worked. Thanks to Steve and Merv for your solution.

To Steve & Merv

Just had a successful 1 hour flight with PE.
Hopefully re-installing simconnect.msi did the trick.
Will try another flight tomorrow night. Thanks for your help.
:D

Re: FSX Computer Crashes with PilotEdge

Thanks Merv

I've re-executed simconnect.msi and will connect to Pilot Edge later tonight.
BTW, I see there's a fairly new version of the PE client shown on the website. I'll install the latest version if I continue to get crashes.
Thanks for your response.

Re: FSX Computer Crashes with PilotEdge

Thanks Steve for your response
I don't see any reference to using SImConnect in the instructions for using the PE client.
Can you please explain further?

And to the question from MervA...no I'm not using FSUIPC

Re: FSX Computer Crashes with PilotEdge

Thanks Marcus for your response...this is what I get from the Event Viewer listed under Application Hang. The program fsx.exe version 10.0.61472.0 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Action Cente...
