I checked the internals of my computer and no dust was found and also left one side panel off for possible better cooling.
Next I decided to do some experiments, so I mounted my favorite stead, IFly 737-800, did not enter any data into the FMC or engage the Auto Throttle.
Departed from Brisbane with a manual climb to 36000 ft then pointed the nose due west to fly across Australia, sim speed was set to normal and I let her fly onward on Auto pilot for 4.5 hours, no problems.
After the above hours I reset the sim speed to X2, the aircraft still flew on with no problems.
Next was to set sim speed to X4, the sim froze within approximately 2 minutes.
So, is this a glitch within FSX itself or what in my computer would cause the freeze ?
The only other Addon that was running was Orbx Oceana.
Thank you for all your suggestions.
