I always reinstall stuff when i hav no clue as to whats goin on.  Then, rather than change settings, i go directly to play.  Usually works.

Otherwise i got no more suggestions...

(well one more: set FSX settings to the same as the demo settings...)

Let's forget all this nonsense & get this fixed if possible. If we insist on perfect spelling & punctuation there would be very few members left in this forum & that includes the mods & senior members. Glass houses & all that.

Eiiic, if you post your system specs somebody might be able to suggest something.

Hagar and Eno if this bother you so much oh well.
It not like i dont know how to read or spell.
i give my info about my problem not to come on here
talking crap about anything. well exuse me for not
using .................................................................
and capital letter.
Big deal.

Well i have 3.06 intel pentium 4 processor
512mb of ram 200gb hard drive. My graphic card
suck it a intel family chipset family. 128mb
i played fs02 fs04 and i played orbiter all worked
out just right. i even tried out the demo on fsx and
it worked out right. And all i get sometime is
application error fsx.exe
the instruction at (000000000) referenced memory
at (000000000) the memory could not read. It never
said that to any other application i had played on here
i guess i have to get a new pci greahic card or what
not. i dont know but all my spec are ok i guess.

First of all craigl if reading isnt my strong point
i wouldnt be here today ok.
and 2nd mind ur own busniess ok.
If you dont have nothing  better to say
dont say nothing at all.
And if was trying to help me i dont need any smart
remark
just. just write as if you are talking to me in person

Craig, let's leave it. This isn't the forum I know it is if we can't help out if someone's got a problem. It's what we do best. English teachers we are not 

Looking at the machine specs, lack of memory and not having a separate graphics card with at least 128MB of its own RAM I'd say are the main problem areas. Don't forget that the graphics system you have is actually sharing (ie stealing  ) some of the already small amount of RAM that you have which is making the memory problem even worse.

Can't explain how the demo worked and the release doesn't. Are you sure the real FSX didn't work when you first installed it and then it got worse after you changed a few settings?

That's what happened for me and it was a climb back up again.

But the first thing you MUST do is edit FSX.cfg to make all of the changes that have been found to definitely help program performance, even if, because of your rig, it means cutting down on visual quality.

BTW I've only got an AMD 64 3000+ and 1GB DDR RAM myself, so with a bit more RAM and a separate card you should be able to do at least as well as me.

If you go to the new FSX Support Resources website that Microsoft has now set up on their main flightsim games site, I think I saw a specific listing for that particular error.

best,
