Good to hear it.

I am told that nVidia and L-M are working on this, but no word of when a solution might be available.

I can say with the newest NVIDIA drivers from 14/04 (466.11) crash still occurs. Don't install them. All those 465+ versions crashing P3D.

Yep, I stupidly made the mistake of updating to the 466.11 driver and now it won't let me roll it back.

John,

There should be plenty of link for downloading the 461 driver in the threads discussing this.
