Hi, 

it looks like you ran out of memory and crashed. 

try increasing your pagefile size minimum

this should help, make sure you have plenty of room on the pagefile drive. 

thank you

I'll give it a shot today, and post result. I did a little more testing last night after the post. It seemed the more assets in the mix, the higher the frequency of the ctd. It's weird it just started happening after I reinstalled Windows. Thanks for the help @BIGNEWY

update: This is strange, @BIGNEWY I went to my virt mem settings and I haven't changed anything yet, still set to auto manage. And it's showing that my DCS dedicated drive, the M.4 drive, has no virtual mem allocated to it!, and only 8000 mb for my OS drive! Does that seem normal to you? Maybe I'm missing a driver after the reinstall that manages the virtual memory normally, and currently it's using a Windows fallback or something? But, anyway, what do you recommend as pagefile amount for, DCS when manually set?

So, I set my pagefile for my DCS drive to 20gb init & 40gb max. I don't really know if that is to much or to little. But, I loaded into a mp server that I kept crashing on before, it has a lot of assets in it. I was able to spawn, refuel/rearm and taxi to the strip without CTD like before when just loading the mission. It seems to have solved my problem, and even if I have more trouble with it after being in game for an amount of time. I will know what the issue is related too and where to start troubleshooting. Thanks for the quick help, @BIGNEWY, it's hard to tell how long it would have taken me to find out what the problem was stemming from. If you think I should set it different, I'll sure take the advice. And, THANK YOU AGAIN!
