Sprool Posted July 23, 2020 Posted July 23, 2020 Since yesterday evening DCS refused to run, all I get is a black window on the screen, then it just sits there, nothing happens. I removed DCS Openbeta last night and did a fresh install but no luck, exactly same thing happens. It wont run any more. The black window just sits there all the time. Any ideas?
aceviper Posted July 23, 2020 Posted July 23, 2020 Renaming your saved games folder amd letting the game build a new one on start up can resolve possible issues.

Flappie Posted July 23, 2020 Posted July 23, 2020 @Sprool: Was your Windows 10 upgraded to version 2004? And if yes, have you activated the GPU scheduling? If yes, try to deactivate it. ---
Sprool Posted July 23, 2020 Author Posted July 23, 2020 Ive been playing DCS since Jan so yes it meets min specs. 2nd reinstall and new saved games folder has allowed it to run, now Im just re-downloading all my modules. Should be done sometime next week. What is GPU scheduling?

Sprool Posted July 23, 2020 Author Posted July 23, 2020 its ok, finally sorted thx, s'thing in the saved games folder corrupted, as per aceviper advice, now working, though to be safe I had to scrap entire saved games folder and all the setting s so its back to remapping all the keys & settings from scratch, but at least its running again.
