    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Kernel Dump Error

paiken

SOH-CM-2023
Woke up to a new splash screen when launching MSFS. It appears that the XBox app has been updated. Unfortunately, my computer does NOT like the new app. I've been getting the BSOD along with the description of the Kernel Dump error. Tried rolling back my graphics driver with no joy. Checked into a couple of other things with no joy. Then I decided to try logging out of the XBox app and then starting MSFS. Glory be...it worked! Only problem is, now it seems I have to log out of the XBox app every time I want to use the simulator. Microsoft better fix this issue PDQ. I'm not ready to buy a new rig.
 
Well...had to bite the bullet. After discussing the situation with SWMBO I ordered a new rig. My 4 year old Alienware Aurora has reached the end of the rainbow as far as gaming is concerned. I tried re-installing windows to no avail. Kept getting BSOD's. At least I'll have a much better graphics card (GeForce RTX 3060Ti) so maybe I'll be able to use Ultra settings on the graphics.
