1Whodewho Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Help anyone, My DCS 2.5 has started crashing before it even gets booted up. I am so disappointed because my 1.5 hasn't worked in a while. DCS 2.5 was working great until today. I am attaching the log it provides me with.

MadDog-IC Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Help anyone, My DCS 2.5 has started crashing before it even gets booted up. I am so disappointed because my 1.5 hasn't worked in a while. DCS 2.5 was working great until today. Thanks in advance if anyone can help. May be video related, only by the fact that it looks like it can't seem to run or initialize the DX11 graphics renderer on your graphics card, it doesn't even get to the stage of logging what GPU driver you are using. How well do other DirectX 11 based game behave ??? Was DCS 2.5 working ok, before the new hotfix was applied today ??? If you have done a recent update to graphics drivers or suspect Window 10 has done a sneaky update, I would try: Uninstall the current Nvidia graphics drivers and reload them (Have any antivirus disabled whilst doing that as may interfere with install). Run the normal "DCS_updater.exe clean" command to remove any MOD files from install and the "DCS_updater repair" command to verify your install and correct any issues with missing or corrupt files. Last resort try the old rename of the saved games directory were dcs saves you preferences. Regards, Ian.

1Whodewho Posted February 15, 2018 Author Share Posted February 15, 2018 Thanks I’ll try these. I had troubles before with the display setup. Come to think of it Microsoft did do a update just a few minutes before I started having issues. I’ll get back with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Whodewho Posted February 15, 2018 Author Share Posted February 15, 2018 I contacted Nvidia and they talked me thru an account change with widow and it fixed the problem. I’m sure it was the last windows update.Thank so much for your help. Maybe now I can sleep at night.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe now I can sleep at night.:) No problems, good to see your up and going again, seems that windows 10 is a bit problematic at times. Cheers, Ian.
