I've seen several posts which show a lot of info on "what happened" and was wondering how that is done. I've had several issues with FS9 lately. Most I can "sorta" trace to "FSPause"...those are hard freezes with no mouse or keyboard input available (my backlit keyboard even goes dark). I'm not 100% on that one yet...but I'm working on it.
The problem I had today was the old reliable "Microsoft Flight Simulator had to close...blah, blah". I was not using anything other than MyAAS at the time. I did also have an error from MyAAS stating it could not connect to FSUIP...but I'm guessing that is to be expected if FS9 shuts down. How does one go about deciphering what went wrong? I must admit that I was..."really very upset"...as I was around 9 hours into a multi-leg bid flight, KHOU-LKPR, in the Citation X and have no idea where Martin's classic jukebox ended up? So "really very upset" was I that I just hit "don't send a report" while attempting to not destroy some piece of hardware. In truth those error messages are something I have never been able to decipher, anyway, and we all know how much good it does to send MS a report .
What do you use to try and troubleshoot these types of problems?
