M2K Crashes

[Fathom]

Attached is the log file. This only happens during the tutorials of the M2K and while flying it. System is a I9-9900 with 64GB's RAM, RTX2080, and NVME drives. System locks and shutdowns and sometimes goes to blue screen. This only happens with the M2K in DCS. I see the CPU spike in the log.

 

I also see a intermittent hang-up while opening DCS on the splash screen as others are reporting.

Hi Fathom. Your DCS log file has no end. This generally means Windows is responsible for the brutal stop.

 

I'm aware you said that only the Mirage makes your PC crash, but you should check your RAM. Windows has a diagnosis tool for it. Just press Windows key and type "memory" to find it. You won't be able to use your computer during the operation.

Thanks!

 

I think I found the culprite. There was a blue screen that listed a kmode error. While researching it, I found windows had updates for the 2004 version they are pushing currently. After the updates, it worked fine. There was also a power management setting for sleep and shutdown that was recommended to turn off.

 

After the above, flew a tutorial and everything seemed to work. Ill do more tonight to make sure.

 

Thank you for the input!
