Cdr84 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) My GeForce GTX580 died. While I had things apart troubleshooting I finally put in an additional HDD I got a while ago and threw in an old Nvida 8800GT just so my computer would work while I wait for my new GTX970 to arrive. I am in the process of moving things to the new drive, but checking to see things are working before moving. Neither of my DCS (1.5.x and 2.0.x) will start now. I get the start DCS screen then it crashes before it starts all the way up. Is this because the 8800GT won't run DCS? It is a DX11 compatible card and shows DX11 in the DXDIAG window. I'll attach the log. ?dcs.log.txt Edited April 29, 2016 by Cdr84
Insanatrix Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Quick search say's it's DX10, not DX11. I think DXDiag will show the version of DirectX installed, not what the card supports but could be mistaken.
