Fsx out of memory error?

[marcrg24]

Hi all!

Over the parts few months, I have scrambled some money together to build a new gaming pc. I am 15 and paid all of it myself.
I have an asus z270-k, i5 7600K cpu, thermaltake fully modular 850w psu, 8Gb of ddr4 ram, and an asus dual gtx 1070 8gb

This is primarily for fsx and I want to run it on three screens, two more motors sandwiching a tv. I have to open a new window and undock it to get an almost panoramic view but then I get an out of memory error almost instantly?? The application then goes on to shut down leaving me baffled.. I have plenty of ram for fsx and 700gb free of my 1tb hdd.

Can someone tell me what this error is, why I am getting it and how I can resolve it?

Any solutions or idea will be much appreciated
Many thanks in advance
Regards Marc

memory is the ram, not your hdd. What else are you running other than fsx?

I have google chrome open, with my flight plan on it, but that's it when I'm running th game. When I go into task manager there are loads of tasks but I can't shut them down because they're background tasks.
I have other games too but don't have them opened when playing fsx

chrome could use up a lot of memory, try firefox?
did you look at the resource usage on ram while you are playing?

Okay I'll give it a try.
And no I haven't checked the ram usage but I'll do that next time I play
Thanks
