That error sounds like the shaders are crashing. see the other thread on things to try. Make sure you installed DX9 properly as per the Step by step in the FAQ.
Black screen - DPI setting - try at 100% normal DPI. Try 16 bit mode rather than 32 see if that helps. Dx 9 is installed as directed in your write up . Set dpi to 100% ,,,no change tried 16 bit ,,,no change . still ctd and black screen after go to field. Can hear planes on black screen and guns fire bur no picture. Will have to cancel my purchase at pay pal .Sorry would like to try but it just does not run on my system. Will delete completely.

Look at his hardware, He seems to run on a very low system, RX460 and an A10-7700 FMsocket system. It is a shame because everything else runs super. I understand part of it must be my system but also part of it is the Game itself. Just went back this morning and cut all Graphics options very low. It is hard for me to believe that my system will not run this game at its lowest settings. But it wont!!!!!

it is not only your Vcard, but also your CPU that is become on the low end side of the gaming hardware performance.
Try to set CPU affinity of all processes to 2 cores and the other 2 cores, pure for CFS3.exe only. Overclock your k series CPU to an much higher Ghz.
Still I think your hardware needs an upgrade and not only for this game.
Dutch.. Thank you for your kind reply but i have no idea what you are telling me. I can only say that my computer as it is now has run everything just fine untill this game. Way back when I started running Grand Prix legends many helpful simmers told mt the same thing but in the end It was running with many corrections , just fine with no upgrades at all. I have most of the very good racing Sims from Steam and a few flying games including Rise of flight and they all run perfectly.at reasonably higher settings. Thanks again for your reply. I am still trying to find the right combination.

After trying about 10 sets of video card drivers and installing a set from about 1 year ago (17.4.3) IT RUNS, Must just be an old fasioned game. As Dutch suggested i am only getting 30-35fps but that is more that good enough. Again, Thanks loads for everyone input. With out your help I would have been out of luck. Now I up for programming my Joy Stick. .

Good to hear But also to be clear - old drivers do not necessarily make your FPS worse for any given game. In fact, in many cases (especially for older games), the opposite may be true (and hey, black screen is basically 0fps, no? so it's a very big improvement there! ) For the most part, unless a particular set of drivers is in some way broken or deficient, the only real reason to update drivers is better compatibility - in most cases, with newer software and features. But unless you're running into problems or poor performance with what you're actually using... why update? All the more so if it actually breaks the software you're actively using, like WOFF in this case. I tend to be very careful with graphics drivers updates since I play a lot of older games, and don't particularly care for the latest and shiniest stuff. I have absolutely no interest in how my PC will run Assassins Creed Odyssey, Black Ops 4, Battlefield 5, or etc., because I'm probably never going to run them on my PC in the first place. On the other hand, I care very much about how (in technology terms) ancient products like WOFF, Falcon 4.0 or Enemy Engaged might run on my computer, and will stick with drivers that best work with them, even if it means not updating the drivers for months/years.

If you're having trim problems, I feel bad for you son I got ninety-nine problems, but my pitch ain't one...

Thanks CCIP. I had no idea. I thought you always had to update video card drivers. I guess i will leave them alone now.
Still no luck with controller programming. I unbind and bind and save but nothing changes.

I will talk to my computer guy about going back to a better NVida card. He installed a fairly good one and i could not run one of my very good race games . But i can not remember which one. Since i am not an ultra computer guy and am now pushing 84 i have to be careful on what my computer will run. I really do not know how far i can go with my machine and I am not about invest in a new one at this late date. But i sure appreciate the tips and comments. Thanks for all your input.
Right now i am strugelling with getting the correct inputs on my Joy Stick and have had no luck so far.
