Intel HD graphics does not work with Boeing 777

Hey giys,
Resently I has a big trouble about my flights in flightgear 3.4. It seems that everything go smoothly , and after perhops 9-10 hours flying / like my last flight from EDDF to KJFK/ the simulator crashes with message "Flightgear has stopped working". I see no reason about that - he always worked perfectly upon the last year. I've manage some staff for more efficient - I set on the simulator hight priority, uncheck clouds and texture compression, delete terrasync cache every time before making new flight and even put a Razer cortex on fgroot menu before starting the simulator. Is there a way to improve it without new videocard / it's too expensive, cannot enfourd it./?

A graphics card is normally unable to cause a crash of the program. The most likely cause of a crash after long duration is memory consumption / overflow - please monitor whether this might be the issue in your case.

how much RAM/swap do you have ?
And have you checked the task/process monitor to see how much memory is used when that happens ?
Please don't send support requests by PM, instead post your questions on the forum so that all users can contribute and benefit
Thanks & all the best,

Ah, yes, Intel HD Graphics may be slow, but they work perfect with the 777 :roll:. That sounds like the memory leak.... did 3.4.1 ever get to the front page?

my RAM is 8GB, windows 7 professional, Intel Core i3 processor. No did not watch- I've been in another room then, when I come back to make my final approuch I've saw the error massage and get angry myself, because this flight was with multiplayer and I can not change the settings, some people was laugh about it, because they was watch the flight from the map.

before 3.4 there was an ugly memory leak that could easily cause problems over long flights... i don't remember if it was fixed in 3.4 or in 3.5 (the last alpha/beta) as i only ran 3.4 for a few days before figuring out how to build my own on my linux system... since then all i run is the 'next' version and i've not seen fgfs get over 2Meg in memory usage since... most of the time it is less than 1.5Gig of RAM...

I was running FG and saw a on screen warning that my HP Installed Intel Integrated Graphics Card was lacking in some aspects of displaying scenery. If that is the case and I want to replace the card, which card would be the recommended one.

I also purchased the Program Disc v3.4 from FG and Curtis from FG Store has been very helpful. Once my Hardware problem is solved, I may just get the A/C and Scenery Discs.

Why not get the GTX960?
It's a fairly good, $200 one.

That's if you are really into PC gaming or simulation.
