I have been getting frequent blue screens upon starting a A10C II mission in the Reverb headset (pc is fine but DCS freezes) and can only be fixed with a restart. I have never had any issues with DCS or the Reverb until now. I had a 2070 super and now 3080 with the same issue existing on both. I have also done a fresh Win 10 install after the 3080 installation due to a separate issue. I have no trouble in the OG A10c, AV8b or f18. Searches have yielded nothing..if anyone can help, I would be very very grateful! Captain Biscuit

Hello DCS community... May I please request some assistance from anyone who has an idea about VR - 'Blue Screen of Death issues'...? Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. In short, I'm trying to troubleshoot the reason why using my Reverb G2 causes the dreaded 'Blue Screen of Death' 99% of the time I use it with DCS (and I think any other title). It can be 3 minutes after commencing a flight / mission, or 20 minutes - the timing is random. *** Further to that, I can be playing using the monitor (2D), and if the Reverb is simply plugged in (Display Port, USB 3 & Power Adapter) even without WMR & Steam VR running, then DCS will still BSOD at any random time after starting to play *** SYMPTOM: - Blue Screen of Death with varying error messages, causing a reboot of the PC - Timing can be at any stage of gameplay (2 minutes or 30 minutes) - I can play DCS all day long using the Monitor, but if the Reverb is plugged in & idle in the background (even without WMR or Steam VR running) I'll still get the BSOD after a random amount of time BASIC SYSTEM SPECS: - i7 8700k - water cooled - 32G 3600Mhz DDR4 RAM - ASUS Strix ROG 370-G Motherboard - Gigabyte RTX 3090 OC Edition GPU - Corsair RM-1000W PSU - Windows 10 - 20H2 TROUBLESHOOTING SO FAR: - Updates Updates Updates! Windows 10, BIOS, latest Nvidia drivers (clean install after using DDU in Safe Mode) - Re-Rack of GPU - Thorough check of all PSU wiring & plugs (GPU is using two seperate PSU Cables / Sockets) - 100% Stress / Thermal testing (using both AIDA64 and Superposition) GPU & CPU temps are quite good with no issues. - Plugging the Reverb USB into different USB 3 ports - Plugging the DP Cable into different GPU DP ports - Device Manager - USB Power Management Tab, preventing any / all of them from 'saving power / powering down' *** Am I missing something basic? May I please put it out there to anyone that is more 'Hardware Tech Savvy' or has seen this before? Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated *** Cheers...
