• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Operating system and CTD poll

XP Home SP2 32bit... no problems. P4 3.2GB processor and 6800XTreme 512MB DDR3 video card.
 
Vista 64, Vista 32 (on both a desktop and a lappy), all utterly solid unless I screw drivers up.
 
With XP and 2GB it would crash after going from full screen to window and back 6-8 times, or if I tried to jump back and forth too fast. With Windows 7 and 6GB I can't possibly make it crash. I would also get a crash when accessing the menu from full screen with FRAPS running in XP, but the menu's work fine with Win7.
 
XP SP3 x86 - no issues (so far)

History:
XP SP1 x64 - sometimes BSODs
Vista SP1 x64 - sometimes BSODs
Server 2008 x64 - sometimes BSODs
 
Well lets see, I started with PCDOS 2.11 and MS Flight Sim 1.1 and the only crashes I had were into these large flat mountian things...

Currently, Vista Home Premium (32 Bit) 4GB RAM with an Nvida 9600GT, and I am still crashing into mountians, and runways, but not to the desktop well not so far anyway... give me a little time though, Panther is a good teacher, I am just a slow learner...lol
 
XP Home 32 bit, SP2. Home built computer. CTD with FSX when graphics card (8800 GT) was set at 8xS AA (via nHancer). Seems plenty stable at 4x Multi-sampling AA.
