Plan G crashing after installing a new monitor.

[WGTL17]

Hey there,

After recently adding a new second monitor to my setup, PlanG crashes ('Plan-G has stopped working') within seconds of opening.

I have had Plan-G running perfectly for quite a while and I absolutely love this program. The only thing that I can think of that has triggered this is adding my new 21" touchscreen monitor. I only just updated to the latest version of PlanG as I was running 2.0.3 before but there has been no difference.

I'm running Win7 64bit.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you changed the graphics drivers? It could be a conflict of some kind. Look at the Windows Application log - that may throw more light on the exact cause of the error.

Hey Tim,

yes I did have to upgrade some drivers but I believe they were only for the touchscreen and not Nvidia graphics drivers.

Where can I access the Windows application log?

many thanks

Hello,
In Win7 it is in
Control Panel; Administrative Tools; Event Viewer... wait untill it is ready ; down the window : Logsummary ; select Application

Hope it helps

Thanks Emile!

I Have attached the logs - They make little sense to me i'm afraid.

Looks like a UIAutomation error.

Have you done the FSX UIAutomation 'fix'? (e.g. http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?203306-FSX-Win-7-issue )

Wonderful! It appears to be working now.

I installed the vista UIautomationcore.dll files and she's sweet. I had previously removed the WIN7 UIautomationcore.dlls but failed to put the vista ones in.


Thanks for your help!
