Flappie Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Hey @Klabo. You're having the "DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED" kind of crash. It means the game loses communication with the GPU. From the outside, it sounds like a graphics driver issue, but it's not always the case. Cause number one and two are GPU and RAM overclocking. However, sometimes it's caused by a small pagefile. I see your pagefile is quite small (5GB), and I know DCS often doesn't like that very much. 2021-02-10 06:28:48.211 INFO DCS: CPU cores: 6, threads: 12, System RAM: 32710 MB, Pagefile: 5120 MB Manually edit your Windows pagefile settings: Disable automatic handling of pagefile Set initial size to 32768 (32 GB) Set max size to 32768 (32 GB) Next time you launch DCS, the log should show a 32 GB pagefile. Please let us know how it goes. Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aluminum Donkey Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Klabo, Down-clock your GPU. Crashes to desktop are often, if not usually, causes by excessively high GPU clock speeds. Graphics cards are often heavily overclocked right from the factory, so even if you have not overclocked yours, it might be running much too fast already and it isn't quite stable. The GPU crashes and the sim dumps you to the Windows desktop--that's why you're getting the DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED error. Down-clock your GPU by maybe 200 MHz or thereabouts and try again. Once it's stable, bump the GPU clock up again in small increments until you find a nice, fast speed where it's still completely stable. Worked for me.

This is probably the change that DCS can't stand: your previous RAM was not overclocked, but your new RAM is. Try lowering your RAM OC, and if DCS keeps crashing, try disabling XMP completely (@2666). At least, we'll know if the DCS issue comes from your RAM OC or not.

Flappie Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 OK. Please try what is often suggested by ED crew: Rename your Saved Games\DCS folder as "DCS.backup". The game will subsequently start with default settings and default controls. Launch any mission and see if you keep crashing. Still crashing? Then try a cleanup and repair. After all this, if you keep getting the same DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED crash, open a support ticket if you haven't already. Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever.

The "DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED" message means your GPU is crashing. That's why your system is crashing to desktop instead of giving you a Blue Screen. Messing around with reinstalling/repairing DCS isn't gonna help with that and neither will re-installing Windows and/or changing graphics drivers most of the time. If it's always, always doing it, and muffing about with graphics drivers, Windows settings, repairs/reinstalling, different brand of beer, different swear words etc. aren't helping, it's probably an excessive GPU clock--even if you haven't overclocked your GPU. It's very common for GPUs to be factory overclocked excessively right out of the box. Great benchmark scores, but lousy stability. Reduce GPU clock speed and fly a while, see what happens!

All games work just fine I have just flying games. I can do on my comp. anything for hours. Play games on line of line all good until I get in to DCS . Well after flying DCS for over 20 years and spending bunch of many on it and because of it, going to put this former awesome game.
