DCS crashes occasionally

Hi Guys,

 

Every once in a while, DCS will crash during a mission. I have no clue why it happens.

I noticed that every crash generated a .crash file and .dump file but when I try to open them I get a bunch of gibrish so I guess the files might be binary.

 

I also looked at the dcs.log and noticed that the error happened when it tried to load a sound file or something like that.

The error message/line wasn't very detailed.

 

does anyone know how to read those .crash files or dump files? I'd like to know why it is crashing?

 

Thanks

 

system specs:

Windows 8.1

AMD fx-8320 4.0Ghz

Radeon R9-280

8GB of RAM

Upload those files. FAQ for details.

 

Others with that video card have had to increase the speed of the fans to prevent crashes.
