I get this problem whenever I run FSX, if, I am in a second or third flight, and if I use the mouse to right-click a menu around 18 times.  I've tried replacing the DLL with the Windows 7 version and done tons of other things mentioned on AVSIM, but I can't get it to stop crashing.  Vista's Report-Problem solution only tells me that I need to run Windows Update, since it's a system Driver, but there's obviously nothing to update.

I'm running FSX SP2 (Crashed with SP1 and stock also) and Vista SP1.  I am at a loss as to why this is happening to me since all the other people I've found that have had this problem have had it only because they were running the beta of Windows 7, and were able to fix it by getting the DLL from Vista and putting into their Windows 7 installation.  I am running Windows Vista, and as such I can't downgrade to Windows Vista.  I did try upgrading to the Windows 7 version of the file, and then it still didn't stop the crashes.   One person did recommend downgrading to the 32-bit version of the file since FSX is a 32-bit program, but it didn't fix it.

On a side note, I'm really surprised it would happen to this game since it was made by the same company that made my whole operating system.  :(

This does not happen in any other games, and they're 32-bit also.
