Title: Latest p3Dv5.1 crashing after installing gsx and O'Hare
Post by: elfynh on April 04, 2021, 06:57:44 pm
Hi guys

I have searched and tralled through loads of stuff on the net in an attempt to fix my issue but I don't seem to be getting anywhere so I was hopeing someone here could steer me in the right direction.

I got a new computer from Chillblast a couple of weeks ago and have been running P3Dv5.1 without issue. I have the latest P3dv5 installed on a clean computer and have done a few flights without any issues.
I decided to do a flight today EGLL-KORD. Whenever I do a new build in FSX/P3D I install all my aircraft etc but only install scenery as and when I fly into said scenery so as I was planning on flying into KORD today I went to install it but it told me I needed GSX installed. So I installed GSX and KORD and started P3D. I was surprised that I didn't get the permission questions for GSX/KORD on startup but P3D loaded to the start screen at which point I got a CTD.
The start screen loaded but none of the windows rendered (i.e the aircraft visual spinning) before it crashed.

I have uninstalled everything installed today (GSX and KORD) with no luck and looked at fsuipc as some articles pointed to an issue with that in the past.

I have seen that it would appear to not be a direct issue with Fsdreamteam items but something has been changed during the install of them that has messed everything up.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Elfyn

Check your NVidia drivers. If you have 465.89, this is the culprit.

I only knew this because this very issue was reported on the PMDG forum three days ago.

Sure, you installed the latest nVidia drivers ( if you said that, we would replied much quicker ), which are well known to not work at all with P3D 5.1, there are many threads on LM forum about it:

I actually responded 62 minutes after he posted, and he responded 16 minutes after I did. Not sure how much faster it could have gone.

Which Navidia display adapters does this driver upgrade effect. I have a Navidia display adapter and I'm not having any problems, using FSX.

If you aren't running into issues, you don't have much to worry about. This impacted people running P3D V5.
