  2. MSFS CTD

    Dear AshleyAh Jack,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community



    Thank you for reaching out and sorry to hear that you're experiencing crashes with Microsoft Flight Simulator. Let's try to resolve this issue together.

    From the details you've provided, it seems like the crash may be related to the 'ntdll.dll' file, which is a vital system file used by Windows. Here are a few steps you can follow to try and resolve this issue:

    1. Update Windows and MSFS: Ensure that both your Windows operating system and MSFS are up to date. Windows updates often include fixes for system files like 'ntdll.dll'.
    2. Run MSFS as an Administrator: Right-click on the FlightSimulator.exe and select 'Run as administrator'. This can sometimes resolve permission issues that could be causing the crash.
    3. Verify Integrity of Game Files: Since you have MSFS through Steam, you can verify the integrity of game files to ensure that none of the game files are corrupt or missing. To do this:
      • Right-click on Microsoft Flight Simulator in your Steam library.
      • Go to 'Properties' -> 'Local Files' tab -> 'Verify integrity of game files'.
    4. Disable Background Applications: Sometimes, other running applications can interfere with the game. Try closing unnecessary background applications before launching MSFS.
    If after following these steps the issue persists, please provide additional information such as any recent changes made to your system or additional error messages that appear. This will help us further diagnose the problem.

    We appreciate your cooperation and patience. Let us know how it goes!



    Best Regards,

    all games crash!

    I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
    Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
    What happens?
    If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

    P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
    Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
    What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

    MSFS constant crashing

    I have owned MSFS since Nov 2020 ( physical disk) and it always worked perfectly fine . Over the last few weeks I cant even start a flight as it constantly crashes to either a green screen or a white screen . I have contacted ASOBO and zen flight desk and tried all their solutions and nothing worked . I even reinstalled windows but the problem still remains.

    I've tried Xbox support but I just keep getting fobbed off . My PC is compatible and its all up to date. I don't have any add ons and my community folder is empty

    The only thing I can think off is that the game is corrupt in some way
