TAW_Impalor Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Maybe not enough USB power to drive all your joysticks, VR etc? Try removing all the peripherals and plug them one at a time. I had something similar until I added a powered PCIe USB card (Inateck KTU3FR-5O2U). 12900KF@5.4, 32GB DDR4@4000cl14g1, 4090, M.2, W10 Pro, Warthog HOTAS, ButtKicker, Reverb G2/OpenXR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neon_20 Posted November 8, 2019 Author Share Posted November 8, 2019 Pretty much every day no matter the aircraft, it can be in F16 or the Dora or F18, its totally random :( But after the first crash i can usually play for a hour or two without further crashes. Since the first log posted in here I've been playing just fine till now The temps on the GPU and CPU are around 60ºC and 55 respectively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JIMJAM Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I have been hard crashing since the update. This is with the 16. Also something I rarely see is it when 1st running the sim it says server not found and goes into offline mode. Seems to be 50/50. I just lowered my oc and just crash out again....

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted November 9, 2019 ED Team Share Posted November 9, 2019 Hi, Some users have problems with overclocked systems and DCS, If you have an overclock try reducing it for stability. If you have tried the advice in my signature and you are still seeing the same please contact support directly https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/ thank you Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

Neon_20 Posted November 9, 2019 Author Share Posted November 9, 2019 It's a recent PC build and I haven't done any overclocking on the CPU or GPU. I'm not 100% sure that the Zotac GTX 1660ti AMP is factory overclocked i think it only has better cooling. I'm going to double check that. I'm going to contact support and see what can be done.

Neon_20 Posted November 9, 2019 Author Share Posted November 9, 2019 I did a sfc /scannow now it seems it found corrupt files. "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them." Should I do a fresh W10 reinstall ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them." Should I do a fresh W10 reinstall ? If it was me, I would yes. On a new build never good to start with windows errors / corrupt files. Forum rules - DCS Crashing?
