Everything seems to be ok, it must have been my stupidity in using the BlackShark.lua to save the profile. My profile name for freetrack is Blackshark, hence the confusion. Thanks for all your help.

Have just reinstalled 1.0.0 have started and exited (not completed) the first mission and everything was ok. Have to pop out for a few hours, will complete the mission when I return and let you know. If that works I will install 1.0.1c and restart the campaign and see if there is any difference. If that also works will change my joystick settings and see if that causes an issue (these are the only 3 things I've done before it crashes). thanks for the input so far.

ok will do.

Re-installed patch, same issue. Will go ahead an re-install in c:\games I am sure that will work, will complete first mission and see what happens.

Ok, will give that a go. One small thing came to mind seeing you talk about options lua. When I remapped my joystick and saved the profile. I think I used BlackShark.lua, its just dawned on me that I didnt create this, it was already there..could this be the issue. Indeed, the more I think about it, the more I'm convinced this happend both times not long after changing the joystick mappings. :-S

Thanks guys Multiplayer does work (although it looks like a very low resolution and no option to change it, is that correct?) I did a quick search for .trk files in install directory and can only find files in the /mission/Training directory. Where should I check for campaign .trk files? I have been keeping an eye on the ka-50\Temp directory but its empty, no error or crash files are created. I did update my video driver, the standard one from windows 7 was a standard VGA...searched for new driver using windows update and it brought this current one in. Had no issues and it does play DCS:BS beautifully @ 1900x1200 and medium to high settings on everything so would be surprised if it was a video issue. No mods installed. Installing in a different directory does solve the issue, but only temporarily until I complete the first mission then I am back at square 1. (any idea why installing in a different directory works? what permissions problems could be causing the issue?)

Hi, I'm bought and am running DCS:BS 1.0.1c and have the following problem. After I complete the first mission of the first campaign (familiarisation mission), I land, press esc to end mission and quit. The program then crashes to desktop and I get an error saying "Launcher.exe" has stopped working and I cannot restart the game. If I uninstall and re-install the game fails to load with the same error. I uninstalled and installed into a seperate directory as suggested in other threads and hey presto it worked. Completed first mission again and on quit it crashed again and the same problem exists. The only things I have done is to assign some joystick control commands, other than that its a vrigin install and 1.0.1c patch applied. In Event viewer I get the following:- Log Name: Application Source: Application Error Date: 16/12/2009 15:27:35 Event ID: 1000 Task Category: (100) Level: Error Keywords: Classic User: N/A Computer: jim-PC Description: Faulting application name: Launcher.exe_unknown, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4a817b84 Faulting module name: ntdll.dll, version: 6.1.7600.16385, time stamp: 0x4a5bdadb Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x00052bfe Faulting process id: 0xa38 Faulting application start time: 0x01ca7e64499ee168 Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\Bs\Ka-50\bin\stable\Launcher.exe Faulting module path: C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll Report Id: 88b10dfe-ea57-11de-bfbc-0010c69d4cd1 Event Xml: <Event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event"> <System> <Provider Name="Application Error" /> <EventID Qualifiers="0">1000</EventID> <Level>2</Level> <Task>100</Task> <Keywords>0x80000000000000</Keywords> <TimeCreated SystemTime="2009-12-16T15:27:35.000000000Z" /> <EventRecordID>1283</EventRecordID> <Channel>Application</Channel> <Computer>jim-PC</Computer> <Security /> </System> <EventData> <Data>Launcher.exe_unknown</Data> <Data>0.0.0.0</Data> <Data>4a817b84</Data> <Data>ntdll.dll</Data> <Data>6.1.7600.16385</Data> <Data>4a5bdadb</Data> <Data>c0000005</Data> <Data>00052bfe</Data> <Data>a38</Data> <Data>01ca7e64499ee168</Data> <Data>C:\Program Files\Bs\Ka-50\bin\stable\Launcher.exe</Data> <Data>C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll</Data> <Data>88b10dfe-ea57-11de-bfbc-0010c69d4cd1</Data> </EventData> </Event> I also attach my latest dxdiag. The system was fine whilst doing all the training scenario's and some missions, I only get this issue when starting the campaign. Any ideas? DxDiag.txt
