Help please

Hi, I'm new as you probably already noticed.
My Problem:
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 plays nice for 30 minutes to an hour then it crashes. When I'm playing my memory usage on microsoft flight simulator
always gets bigger and bigger and then it just quits. Anyone have this problem and know how to fix it?

There is a patch on the FS2004 official site

patch 9.1? I've already downloaded and installed this patch. Still same problems

Ah yes, the elusive memory leak.

This is usually caused by a poorly coded 3rd party add-on. Did it just happen recently after installing a certain add-on? If so, that is
probably the culprit. Uninstall it and see if that improves it.

If not, try increasing the size of your swap file to 2X your installed RAM. That usually helps.

How about increasing the Virtual Memory? I think that'll help!

SWAP File = Virtual Memory
