spirittoo 0 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I don't know what is going on. My mobo died on me and I had to replace it. After re-installing X Plane it keeps giving me this message ... X Plane cannot access 3 GB of virtual memory. This can cause crashes and memory shortages with high rendering setting. Now I changed the size of the virtual memory by going into my computer right click on it . Clicked the advance tab. Click on settings in the performance box. Clicked the advance tab there then clicked change in the virtual memory box ... increased the initial size to 3072. But I still get the message when it loads. I tried doing what they suggested in the boot.ini file, but the computer didn't like that at all. So I change it back to the original boot.ini. When I tried to quit the flight it crashes and I have to get the task manager to close it. I never had this problem the first time I installed it ... I don't understand why it is doing it now. My OS is Win XP ... This software certainly isn't worth the price I paid for it. Log.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Hello, that is, because you are using a 32bit operating system. This system only can address about 3GB of RAM. Independent of the size of your virtual memory. The best way ist to update the OS to a 64 bit system. Than you can use X-Plane 10 64bit (this is the future way of X-Plane 10) and the memory problem is away.... Greets Heinz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had installed XP 64, but I could not get the drivers to run my printer and my multi display adapter, so I had to go back to 32 bit. What I don't understand is before my mother board died, it ran okay on my 32 bit system. The only difference is I installed theX Plane upgrade.

Guest Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Hello, is there no 64bit driver for the GTX 280...? May be a reset of the preferences is an idea. http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/88148-reset-the-preferences/ And than setup your x-plane 10 with usefull rendering options.

Dadglider 0 Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Hello, When to try to quit X-Plane, the software crash. You need an update of your graphic card driver. With the same problem, i solved it. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spirittoo 0 Posted April 24, 2015 Author Share Posted April 24, 2015 My graphic card is updated for the lastest driver. I deleted the files and restarted XP ... that helped, but now I am having a problem with the sound. It is very loud no matter how low I slide the controls in the sound preference, only when I have it at zero then there is no sound at all. What do I need to do ... this is on the XP 32 bit OS system.
