So this problem only reared-its-ugly-head in the past 2 weeks or so, and i'm fairly certain not even after any changes to FS. When I set up my flight plans the system is usually okay, but as soon as I sit down in the 737NG cockpit to program the FMC my problems start. I usually open up the kneeboard and use the nav info to program in all the way points, but as soon as I click on anything in the kneeboard (scroll button, main text, anything), a black screen shows up and the processer just starts thinking. It never responds back, so I usually have to just ctrl-alt-delete the system. The problem isn't just in the 737NG, but in ALL planes and ALL kneeboard settings. Can anyone diagnose?

I'm fairly certain this isn't a video driver issue, because it was a problem before AND after my driver update.

If your running RoboForm, or WindowBlinds dump them and all should be ok.
Let us know how you do.

I thank you for your prompt replies radar man, I don't think you get thanked enough for letting everyone know that yes someone is listening.

But sadly I don't run either of those programs. I'm anticipating having to re-install flight sim, but we all know how long that takes, especially re-installing all of those add-ons!

Wall Bashing Stumped!

Don't lose your add-ons, move the folder to another place, desktop.
If you've added anything in the past few days, that might be the cause of the problem. If not then move your gauge and effects folders also.
Back up the new ones if you move the old ones back into the sim
