Ran into this today for the first time. Start FSX normally in full screen mode, select aircraft and location, start up is normal. Before I get light on the struts the sim minimizes to the tool bar. This is NOT a crash. The FSX icon is visible and task manager shows it running. Takes forever to get the sim up again using alt tab. Reboot works every but what's the point? Once I get back in sim if I switch to windowed mode it does minimize but instead the game pauses about every 10 to 20 sec. Hit P and back in sim but 10 to 20 sec later blah, blah, blah!
After hours of research it seems this happens to a lot of folks. Tried a dozen or so fixes but none have worked.
Malware and Bit Defender say I have no viruses or malware and I've killed all running presses before going into the sim. This happens with the other 2 FPS games I play also.
Any silver bullets out there. As always, any help is appreciated. My PC specs are in my sig.
