@ David2406,

Check with your Add-on developers and verify if ready for your P3D version.

Install only one and test.

Stop at the first problem and notify that developer.

Note:

Reboot PC after each test / flight and wait for Windows to completely close (takes a minute) before starting P3D again.

Good luck.

Well...3 flights made (LKPR-LKTB, LKTB-LKPR, LKPR-LKMT). First PMDG 777, other two A320, third made from Aerosoft LKPR. Without problem.

Tomorrow I'll go on with PMDG 747 and will try Active Sky.

Is possible, that everything was caused only by installing into Program Files?

In many cases, unexpected reboots come from hardware problems.

So if the problem persists, why waste time by stress testing the hardware with P3D ?
Better do stress tests by tools (leaving your pc alone), e.g.

But be careful with prime95 AVX as it easily fries the processor (monitor the temperature !).
