After 3 weeks of struggles, hassles, and hair pulling, I finally figured out how to fix ALL my FSX errors, crashes and problems. I deleted FSX and went back to FS9. No problems since and I couldn't be happier.
FSX is THE WORST program. I am glad that MS is giving it up. They didn't know what they were doing. They should have kept working on FS9. I feel badly for the employees and programmers, as they were likely doing what management was telling them. I think it's a safe bet, that management is not made up of programmers and users, but money and marketing people.
I hope the MS Flight Sim staff pools their resources and make a new FS that they know they can make better than all others out there. MS giving it up, might be the best thing for us simmers.
I have extensive IT experience and training and if I can't get it going, how can the "normal" person be expected to troubleshoot. We should not have to buy a program and then have to spend unholy numbers of hours getting it to work.
Thanks for letting me vent.
