Crash in menu, then on boot

[Prophet]

So I am in the controls editing screen, and I get a crash. Then, the game won't start at all, crashes immediately at the splash screen. I can't seem to see why it initially crashed, but in the crash log from starting DCS it seems to indicate an out of memory error. I have 16GB of system RAM, and a 1080Ti. Evga XOC and task manager show I am not even close to being out of memory, system or GPU. A reboot seems to fix it, for a while. I had these sudden crashes upon starting the game yesterday too.

Thanks the crashes seem to point to GPU driver.

 

Try a fresh install of the NVIDIA driver and geforce experience
