No, it doesn't.

The crash wasn't caused by GSX, you can have proof of this, using the Windows Event Viewer, which can be accessed from the Control Panel, under the "Admin Tools" section.
After you open the Event Viewer, looks for the Applications logs, and check under the Errors, the ones related to FSX. Clicking on that event, will allow you to see what really crashed.
If it's the G3D.DLL crash, it's very well known problem in FSX and it's not caused by GSX, and can be usually fixed by installing the latest FSUIPC.

Yeah ok.
I'm gonna check. But listen up.. if I use my simulator normally work, but when I install GSX it stop working, I'm gonna think that GSX is the problem.
I'm gonna check what you said.

If GSX was the problem, everybody would have crashing simulators, and not just you.

Most likely not, which will be probably proved after you made the check I've suggested.
If it's the g3d.dll crash, you are mislead thinking it's a GSX problem because you haven't seen it so far, but this only means you haven't installed (so far) other products that fully use FSX graphic features in 3d objects, GSX does, but that's doesn't mean it has a "problem", it simply exposed a problem that would have surfaced sooner or later anyway. The g3d.dll crash it's probably the most common crash in FSX, you have been just lucky so far if you haven't seen yet before.
Of course, assuming your crash IS the g3d.dll but, as I've said, it's so common that's the most likely cause.

Assuming Windows 7 is your operating system:-
If you go to Start, Control Panel, Systems and Security, Admin Tools, View Event Logs, Application Logs, Windows Logs, Application, select "filter current log" select "error", select "critical"+ "warning" +"error" , then Windows will filter and list all the errors you system has produced.
Most recent are on top.
Scroll down until you see any FSX errors or errors/warnings that pertain to your issue.
Only by using these tools will you find out what is causing your FSX "application" to error and assist programmers to determine what the issue may be.
