Hi please attach your dcs log from your saved games location, it might give us some clues.

 

If you have not already done so, remove any unofficial modifications and run a clean up and repair.

Usually when DCS locks up and nothing can be found in the logs it is antivrus or some other security stopping the process dead.

 

Another scenario is something in windows ( hardware or software ) and looking at the event viewer will give a clue about it.

 

Make sure

 

1. DCS is running as admin

2. DCS.exe and DCS_Updater.exe is added to your antivirus allowed list

 

Other things to try are

 

3. a clean up and repair ( guide in my signature )

4. renaming your whole DCS saved games folder ( keep it as a backup ) EXAMPLE C:\Users\bignewy\Saved Games\DCS.backup

restart dcs and redo your settings, this will rule out any configuration problems or script errors. ( you can move your old input folder to the new one after and your log book )

 

 

 

If you find something in the windows event viewer get a screen grab and post here it may help.

Hello BIGNEWY

 

No nvidia surround here

 

Followed your advice and it is OK now, in the process i pressed "Agree" for ED to pull data from my PC...Is it possible to revert it- i pressed "Agree just because i was afraid from 3rd time issue...and don't like that strange body has my permission to pull unknown staff from my PC...

 

Thanks for your help!

Check your options, there is a tick box for it.

 

Off the top of my head I think it is in misc options
