So i got myself comfy in the left hand seat of G-AGSC and blasted off for South Africa.The first leg went well arriving in Zurich with no problems,Onwards to Ciaro,and once again all is well on the Good ship Soggy.Things were about to take a turn for the worse. :shock:
I departed Cairo yesterday morning heading for Nairobi,3 hours into the flight i felt a bit tired,and rather than speed the sim up i paused it and buggered off to bed,back down a few hours later unpause and away we go.15 minutes later the computer reboots on its own
.Too late to restart the flight i toddled off to work slightly annoyed.WooHoo early finish this morning,I know i will refly last nights flight right to the end,Then go to bed.
Smooth departure (new Cairo sceenery is ok btw) nice climb upto FL330,Autoplilots engaged,cheat by switching to gps(all flown manually nav wise yesterday),and off to catch up on the forums,Roughly 3 hrs into the flight,Just crossing into Kenyan airspace,THE BLOODY THING REBOOTS AGAIN :curse: :brick:
Me thinks there may be a problem with the cooling/amount of power being supplied to the graphics card,If anyone has had similar problems please let me know how you fixed it.
Sorry for the long winded story but it was either type this or smash the sodding thing up with a hammer
.I will try it one more time,only this time it will be done at 8x speed as i am bored watching the camels go by the terminal windows.
Cheers,
Pete
I can't 'guarantee' it happening but have found that toward the end of a particularly busy day's flying, it's more likely to happen. It could well be down to a cooling problem but this particular system has never suffered from an excess of heat and the case is usually cool to touch.. I have 3x80mm fans (2 on the front and 1 at the rear).
