I have done a little more testing tonight. I have been reviewing other threads with similar issues but none of the solutions that worked for others seem to match what i am experiencing. this does seem related to the graphics settings though. here are additional tests i have done. 1. turned off antivirus. no difference. 2. removed the DCS.openbeta folder from Saved Games. this made some difference as the graphics setting were reset to default. everything seems fine then, but i really do not want to play the game in a 1280x768 window on a 2560x1440 monitor. 3. i started working on the graphics settings, changing one thing at a time. i worked up to my preferred resolution, 3200x1800 virtual super resolution. that worked fine. 4. i then set the preset to medium, that works fine. 5. i then set the preset to high, and the game started crashing either just before entering the 3d world (before you can hit fly - still on loading screen) or within a few seconds of entering the 3d world after hitting fly. 6. i then used the medium preset and changed one setting at a time. it turns out it is either of two settings that cause the issue i am seeing: textures and water. when either is set to high, the game locks with the symptoms in the first post. so i can use 3200x1800 with the high preset as long as i set textures and water to medium. if i can do more testing to gather more data, let me know. i do run other games with this virtual super resolution and high settings with no issues. i CAN change to an NVIDIA card to test as well if that data would be useful. i prefer not to (key activations) but i can. i cannot test in 2.0 as i do not have nttr.

I have been getting this issue with beta 1.5. it does not matter if latest or the initial release. this does not happen in 1.2. it happens when i load a mission, most of the time when the splash screen is up and the loading bar is at 100%, rarely i actually get into the 3d world and then it happens after a few seconds. the screen freezes and eventually i get the spinning icon and then the message DCS is not responding. I am running win7 x64, ATI R9 fury nano. i have tried latest 15.11 and 15.11.1 beta drivers. the below is a copy of the error window more details message. am running the game as administrator. logs attached. two game crashes one after the other.
