Black Screen / Crash

[Komrad]

Problem with the latest version of DCS World (2.5.4) Cold and dark instant mission everything working normally, then suddenly black screen, sound can still be heard.

 

This is a clean install, just A10c installed. Have updated 1080ti driver to latest version and installed latest motherboard drivers.

 

Attached is the last crash log, would really appreciate any help as the sim is basically unusable at the moment....:(:(

 

Many thanks

 

Bryan.

things you can do:

 

1: Uninstall your GPU driver with DDU ( guru3d.com ; DisplayDriverUninstaller) in SAFE MODE

2: Reboot as prompted

3: Install a newer version of Nvidia GPU driver ( or an older one if there is none newer )...or, try the same driver with a CLEAN install.

 

Things I would not do unless you need it: Do not install Geforce Experience. It's a great tool if you stream or record but it has drawbacks. Skip it and see if that helps.

Thanks for the reply. It looks like I was overstressing the 1080ti, the main culprit being ssaa. That was using 30% extra of the cards capacity, hard to believe.

I would have thought using pretty much all of the cards capacity would have just led to poor performance rather than crashing, but dcs seems very sensitive in that area.

Anyhow just glad to be up and running again.
