Hi there, first of all do you get the crash to desktop at the same place everytime you are flying? If you do then it may well be a problem with some addon scenery you have. We don't have much information to go on so it's a bit hard to determine exactly the fault. Are you keeping an eye on the temps of the computer, it seems you may have everything working pretty hard. You gpu or cpu may be overheating and causing the crash. Is it just Fs2004 that crashes or does the computer restart?

throw some more information our way mate and we see if we can't help you out bud.

cheers
Drew

It crashes randomly. But doesn't crash to desktop. Because it automatically restarts FS2004. Temps are fine on all hadrware.

Thanks Nathan
