FSX Not Responding

Hi I got FSX for Christmas and it was working fine. Then one day I go to start it up and I get the screen before it goes into the game and it like wont load. I press CTRl+ALT+Delate and it says that FSX is NOT RESPONDING Could anyone help me out with this problem

It sounds like a corrupt logbook file. What you describe is exactly what happens when it gets corrupt. Find the program FSX log and you may be able to repair it. Or you can remove the logbook file alltogether and start over.

The file called Logbook should be in the following path: documents and settings/yourusername/my documents/flight simulator x files

I had the same problem. I removed the logbook file from the directory, and it solved the problem. I suspect the logbook file was corrupted when I quit FSX by using the "Exit" <CTRL+C> option from the menu available inside the flight screen, and not "End Flight" <ESC>, as I always do. It's the only time to date I've quit this way, and I only had the problem after doing so.

Thanks faust1200 for the solution!

I've been struggling with on my brothers computer for a week now.

I had this problem as well. After deleting my logbook and 500+ logged hours I discovered this very website has a recovery file. Find it here:

As for my logbook, I had a backup and was able to recover all but 20 hours of my logged time using this recovery file!

Explore this website, folks! There's hidden treasures EVERYWHERE!!!

Hello, I think my logbook is corrupted also. But for some reason when i go to delete it, It says "This file is in use" and then it says its in use under "System" Please HELP!
