There it is. It was nothing more than a lesson in patience for me. I just....let it go...and viola. Its up. AND, I was able to adjust the graphics and get it to start and run again. Thank goodness. And thank you for the help--sometimes I just need that simple little reassuring nudge in the right direction. Now Im off to go find another problem to solve.... Problem solved everyone. You just have to let it load. It takes a while at first, but once everything is loaded in the right spots, it boots fast.

folks I'm really at a loss here. I've only managed to get DCS to run right after a clean install. I adjust the graphics to medium in the settings and...well...thats about as far as I can get. It restarts but then it hangs up on the splash screen. I've tried lots of things after numerous googles: renaming/deleting the DCS folder in the Saved Games folder in users Unplugged my g29 steering wheel thinking maybe it was conflicting or something....nothing. checked the fullscreen setting in the options.lua file--it was already marked false, but switching it to true managed to get me to a black screen and then it crashes Ran the update and repair function via powershell in the bin folder. Im running a ryzen 5 2400G 3.6 Ghz, 32 g of RAM, Radeon RX 480 8 g of VRAM. Ive attached the log file...I have no idea what I'm looking at there but I imagine it might be able to help figure out where the snag is happening. As I mentioned before, I can actually get it up and running only right after a clean install. Ive started up the tutorial for the frogfoot but the graphics settings are set so low by default that I cant read anything in the cockpit. So clearly, I go to change the graphics settings, assuming my machine can handle a small uptick in graphics. DCS then restarts....but never gets past the splash screen after that. I imagine the snag is something so ridiculously simple, which is why it is proving so difficult to diagnose. Can someone please help me out here? dcs.log
