DCS makes my HHD (where is not installed) 100% and freeze my game.


Recommended Posts

Hi!
That's it. I got DCS installed on a SSD (unit F) but when I play DCS, it eats the 100% of the HDD (D and E, two partitions) and my game freeze. Im 100% sure is DCS what is getting the hdd occupied cause the resources admin said to me. On the hdd have nothing related to DCS. Only, it was where i had DCS installed before, but unistall and did a clean install on the SSD. What can i do? Sorry if bad english 😧
thanks in advance!

How many memory (RAM) do you have on your system and where is your pagefile pointed at?

 

Edit:

Just to make sure - your system-partition (windows boot drive) is designated to c:\ ? Which is a SSD or HDD?

 

Edit:

What do you mean by "eats", filling otherwise empty space on D:\ and E:\, or D/E being occupied/busy 100% in the resource monitor?

I got 16 GB ram. I had the pagefile on D(hdd), now i change to C(ssd)
Windows is on C, wich is SSD
With eats I mean it used 100% of the disk.

I'll check with the change on the pagefile.
Thanks!

Where is your dcs user files folder?

Default is C:\users\“your name“\saved games\DCS…..(world or .openbeta)…

 

other than that I have no ideas at the moment…

With 16 GB Ram your pagefile will probably be used a lot, so changing that to the fastest drive should have some effect.

I recommend to set it to a fairly big size if you can afford the space.

Please report results.

 

Good Luck!

Looks like pagefile on SSD made my game works waaaay better. Thanks!

Adding ram is a pending option too 😄
