LTRMcrew Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I've been having an issue with DCS where the screen freezes but the sound remains live. Generally this is happening when entering a slot or after dying and pressing ESC to select slot again. I haven't been able to pin point where exactly this is happening, but it's happening fairly often and requires Task manger to close DCS and restart. Log attached. I only fly the hornet so i'm not sure if it's specific to that or not.dcs - Copy.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted January 30, 2020 ED Team Share Posted January 30, 2020 Thanks I have merged the post here. First thing is to make sure windows and your display driver are up to date. Then run a cleanup and repair ( or verify is steam version ) I would also increase your pagefile size it may help https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=230471 let us know it is helps, if not please attach your fresh dcs log and we will take another look.

LTRMcrew Posted January 30, 2020 Author Share Posted January 30, 2020 In regards to pagefile, I have the drive that DCS is on set with 32768-32768, but the main OS drive is set lower. The "overall" pagefile says "9,350" (ish, it was 9k something) available. Even though the DCS drive is higher. I'm not sure how exactly it's calculating or if the OS drive overrides everything else?

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted January 30, 2020 ED Team Share Posted January 30, 2020 Windows will use which ever dive you have selected to be the pagefile, my advice would be to use the fastest one and use the suggest size in the link.

LTRMcrew Posted January 31, 2020 Author Share Posted January 31, 2020 Hmmm further researching this: Windows 10 will likely use the "least active drive". I have three drives OS on SSD (small older one which is almost full), and 2 HDD. I had all three with pagefiles but system info was showing only 9GB ish of pagefile which is all I could afford on the SSD… so I removed the pagefile on the SSD and left it on the two other HDD with 16384-16384 on each. Voila the pagefile jumped up. Further testing to follow but hopefully this did solve the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
