I am getting pretty angry now

Hello again,
First I assume you reloaded FSX Deluxe and if so did you place in the UIAutomationCore.dll patch? I did some research and found an old thread regarding fs-passenger
and windows 8.1. In fact there have been many issues with FSX and windows 8.1. The UIAutomationCore.dll file is needed to run FSX with windows 8.1. I am surprised
that you haven't had more issues before. You still need the HIGHMEMFIX=1 at least to prevent OOM errors.
My advise is to not load any further add-ons for now. Get FSX to a default state and work on making sure the platform is stable. The Steam Edition of FSX is
designed to work with Windows 8.1 and as you know Dan is working on a revised addition of fs-passenger, so I am sure that will make it compatible with Windows 8.1
Perhaps Joeflyer might know of a current patch for windows 8.1 but I did not see it during my research. It might be buried in an older thread somewhere. I would by happy
to help you in getting FSX running stable. Just let me know

PS: Get back soon because I am going to Colorado for 5 days leaving Thurs.
