Hi all--I'm relatively new to the flight simulation scene, quite frankly I only picked up FSX because it was on sale for $2.50 during the Steam sale earlier this summer. Since I first started playing, I've come across an issue where, no matter which aircraft I use or the location, my game will completely stop responding and I end up having to close the window and restart FSX. Usually this happens roughly 10 minutes after I take off. I'm well aware that the game is quite old, however I'm wondering if there's a specific root cause that can potentially be addressed. I'm running on an Acer Nito 50 that's only about a year and a half old--I have little to no performance issues with the game otherwise.
