NVAPI_Thunk Crash error suggestions

[prestonflying]

Greetings, trying to figure out the best solution for this crash. Anyone else getting crashes with latest NVIDA drivers?

Hi. Please attach your whole dcs.log file (drag and drop it under the text box).

Just had same crash as shown above where preston posted it for me. Just happened again in single player mission.

Hi. You freeze/crash was certainly caused by your DCS-BIOS / TheWay / HELIOS scripts. Here are the last lines:

Ensure these mods are all up-to-date, and make sure there are not conflicting. I also found these errors earlier in your log:

	Ligne 293: 2023-07-14 00:26:46.814 ALERT   EDCORE (Main): Launching process 'C:\Program Files\DCS-BIOS\dcs-bios-hub.exe' failed with error code 2, command line: --autorun-mode, current directory: .

SRS does not seem to be happy either. You want to check this as well.

 

If in doubt, you can disable all these scripts very easily: rename your "Saved Games/DCS.../Scripts/Export.lua" file to some other name, so DCS cannot load the file. Then see if DCS keeps crashing.
