same with my system.

hello. this command prompt line used to work. DCS_updater.exe update 2.9.10.4160@openbeta this needs to match your environment!! also look here @SkateZilla provides a utility that can do this in GUI fashion.

relent! ~S do you ever fly when it is reasonable for me (time wise) on east coast? 1200-1800? by the way your JPG links are dead. nevermind i am dumb lol

great minds think alike brother.

bravo BN. although it likely helped users get to resources, i knew editing HOST was going to sting later. i wished i had a dollar for every client i had to troubleshoot because of HOST. sometimes bad engineers like to make something work and then walk away. then no change logs. SMH.

hello. you have at least one custom mod that could be causing your problem. SH-60B you should try to disable any mods and run a repair.

no problems for me so far. updated without issue. eastern Virginia, US.

hello again. the reliability monitor is essentially information derived from standard event viewer logs. there are likely (or should be) similar information there that is in the report you shared. D3DCOMPILER_47.dll is a file in directx. you may have a corrupted file. have you run system file checker? sfc /scannow Open Command Prompt as Administrator: Type sfc /scannow and press Enter. Wait for completion: The command will scan your system files and attempt to repair any corrupted ones. Reboot if prompted: After the scan, you might be prompted to restart your computer.

hello. you should post your DCS.LOG from saved games. also, if true, 16 GB is likely your issue. it is low end, if not under minimum requirements. also check to see if you have exception in your AV software.

@Martallica hello. i dropped your log from 4/11 crash into analyzer. Errors Hot plug Events Disable hot plug in your CONTROLS section. Your DCS has crashed The crash occurred inside edCore.dll. PLEASE REMOVE ANY CUSTOM MODS FIRST AND CHECK, IF THE ISSUE PERSISTS! If that does not help: Try a !repair. Delete Saved Games\DCS\fxo and metashaders2 and try again. Next, delete %LOCALAPPDATA%\TEMP\DCS and try again. Next, try renaming Saved Games\DCS to DCS.old and try again. Carry out the suggested repair steps one after the other.

hello. please share your dcs.log here. found in \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Logs there will likely be some clues in that file.

please do not take my comments as an argument but as a hopefully a creative discussion. you seem like a guy with a scientific background considering your detailed explanation. the empirical data is that you have a computer that was plenty a few years ago. now with all the changes to dcs over those years, our systems are no longer plenty. also, if everyone using dcs were dealing with the same problems as you are, it would not be nearly as popular as it is. there are other items i shared you could change to make the experience better. scientific method has to be employed to make the situation better for you. with that said, i have a system with 128 GB of RAM, an 11 series CPU, and a 3090 gfx card. i have none of the problems you mention. i do not park cores or any of the other workarounds i see in the forums. there are other things in the tips that you can try too before giving up on it. and believe me when i say, anything you do to improve the performance of dcs is not going to hinder or have detrimental effect on the overall performance of your computer.

make sure you use a good NTP server to grab the correct time. and as @draconus said, root cause is likely the motherboard CMOS. though this can also cause the motherboard not to "remember" other settings like drives, RAM settings, etc.

hello. i know you said you changed your pagefile. however it has reverted. 2025-04-10 06:18:45.351 INFO APP (Main): CPU cores: 12, threads: 20, System RAM: 32606 MB, Pagefile: 4864 MB did you switch it back? i used the dcs log analyzer on your log. see the following: Advice Please update to the most recent version of DCS World.

roger that. hopefully it will get reported.

same for windows 10 apps. are you having some sort of problem? null

review the 8 pages of this post. they are working on it. seems to me that avoiding the servers (if it is possible) that exhibit the error is the best bet at the moment.

ultimate lets everything work as hard as it can with power consumption not a worry. keeping it hidden is a question i have too. i think it is because of worries of what would happen if all pcs in the world have this set. a lot more power being used.

hello as @sirrah said, i also have never had an issue. however i would suggest putting them in saved games. updates may whack them in the main install folders.

have a look at this link. https://elluminetpress.com/2023/08/ultimate-performance-power-plan-in-windows-11/ make ultimate your plan. i still have win10 but it is worth a try for you. make a copy of your current so you can revert.

roger. by the way. win11? have you tried to adjust the power plan?

understood. so since mine works and DCS is set to full screen, thats what i would try. can you post your DCS.LOG?

hello. please post your DCS.LOG from your saved games. there will be clues.
