I started the process for my first online flight last night. I seemed to have everything ready but now FSX keeps crashing on me a few minutes into it. Any idea why?

Aaron, we're going to need some more info to help. First, What version of Windows (or Mac) are you running? Second, what version of Flight Sim (or XPlane) do you use? Third, What network are you using (VATSIM or ICAO)? Fourth, what programs, other than FS do you have running at the same time (like SquawkBox, FSInn, ACARS, etc)?

For some reason I thought I put all of that in this thread! Guess not. Anyhow:

Windows Vista
Flight Simulator X
VATSIM
Squawkbox (running it outside of FS)
ACARS
ServInfo 2.02

Try running SB, FSX and ACARS as admin.

I just noticed this thread and I thought id ask this too.
I've had the same problem lately too. But only since I've been using delta VA acars.

I use:

win 7
Fsx in admin
Acars as admin
Rex
Ez doc cam
Wilco crj200 delta

2.9 gigahertz
Gtx 460 1gig
4 gigs of RAM

It just started doing it, twice in one day!
Any advice would be great, thanks.
