DCS World won't start

[bubbabr]

Hi,

 

I originally had DCS World launching OK, but when it kept freezing when I tried to load my A-10C module, I tried a re-install.

 

Now DCS won't launch at all, despite me re-downloading and re-installing five times.

 

I've attached the .crash, .dmp and .log file I found in the logs folder (zipped), as well as the DxDiag.txt file and a screenshot of my error. The log file is the only one I could open, and is pasted below:
