Fatal error when starting fsx???
Every time I start fsx It loads for a few secs then a window pops up saying a fatal error has occurred and it shuts down. Is there anything I can do without uninstalling it. Or is there a fsx log that I can look at to see what occurred?
Thanks

Had the same problem....eventually I had to reinstall FSX (and lost a good 45% of my aircrafts), but it seems to cure the problem.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times now and still the same error. Any clues on how to fix?? THanks!
Try it this way.

Deleting all files is very important to a good reinstall.
Thanks! Will try and then report back.
You're installing it off an FSX disk or from your hard drive?
If it's off the hard drive, your copy of fsx is probably corrupted. If it's not, my advice is to check that all your drivers are up to date...
Do you have similar problems with any other games?
I am using the OEM disks (paid for). Hmm now that I think of it, I have an old hard drive that I reconnected to the new computer. There are surely some old FSX files on the old HDD. Will that matter?
WOW, I have to offer an apology. I had installed an app that was botching MSFSX. I got it handled.
Thanks a million. I suck. You guys ROCK!
My bad please accept my apologies. 
Glad to hear that you have it running, enjoy!

Try Deleting the Logbook.bin file, which can be found in C:\Users\(your username)\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files
