Hey guys, it's me again with another problem. I 've tried to fly into KATL from TTPP 4 times. The first time on approach to RW27L via the CANUK6 arrival i got an error stating my computer has ran out of memory and to run disk clean up yaddy yadda. I thought it could have been some terrain texture issue so i disabled and uninstall all my terrain files and restored fs2004 defaults. However the error was still persistent for the next 3 attempts to resolve the problem. Strange thing is that it always seems to happen at the exact moment on approach for all 4 attempts. I mean i got a 500GB SATA hardrive with 87% still free. 4GB of DDR2 RAM how is it possible my computer could run out of memory???

I wouldn't mind knowing the answer to this question myself. I'm in a similar spec situation and run into the same error from time to time.

I have heard that this is in some of the scenery files. Sometimes if a scenery is calling a texture or and scenery object you will get this error. I remember FreeFlow Florida had the problem around the St Augustine area. I would check any scenery you have that covers the area around the Canuk6 arrival. Also since you are using the RNAV arrival waypoints check your Navdata/AIRAC *.bgl files.

First - see if you have duplicate scenery of the area where this is happening.
Use this: Scan AFCAD
http://www.simradar.com/File/3924/ScanAFD_v1_0.html
or
directly:
http://www.mstrain.org/fs2000/addons/scanafd.zip
Makes finding duplicate AFCADs very easy.
If there is - delete both it and reinstall
Next, check your scenery list from within Flight Sim to see if there is some kind of default above it that is interfering (happens sometimes with the freeware Seattle Scenery)
Next run a defrag of your drive
Then try again and see if it happens.

Change the season to summer and try that as well. I have one spot near Portland that I can't fly through with winter scenery. I guess the Abominable Snowman lives and has a long arm or he has moved the Burmuda Triangle to Portland!

Well thank you guys for all your help. Andrew, i downloaded that AFCAD program and found 5 airports with duplicated AFCAD.The closest one one being to Atlanta is KCLT with two AFCAD files in it's scenery folder. I reinstalled the scenery and ensure the correct AFCAD was in the scenery folder. So i'll re-do the flight and get back to you guys. Alan, i think you're also on to something. Changing the season is a very interesting point. I'll also try that on the flight!

Thanks John but i have already tried that trick. Question... i have an addon terrain mesh scenery for the USA that only contains bgl files. Can this be a possible cause of the out of memory porblem? Like one of it's file is corrupt?

Well, try uninstalling it - or rolling back your system to when it worked and see if that singles out the problem
