DCS crashes a lot with new crystal super

[Gun Jam]

Ive been using the G2 and DCS has been running reliably. 

about 4 days ago I setup a new crystal super and it seems to be progressively crashing more and more often. My lizard brain says its a broken cable that is disconnecting with head movement. I have no proof of this and it seems to not do it in menus or "test" environments so its probably something else but it feels like a bad cable. Sometimes I get 20 to 40 min sometimes I get just a few min sometimes straight away. 

usually crashes making large head movements usually looking down and then back up. The display will freeze on the last good frame it sounds like the core and background stuff is still working. I can hear the jet respond to inputs but display output is frozen.

Ive attached a log from Syria free flight f14 take off from Lebanon ( I think the one just before sunrise)  I saw nothing of value in the log but I might not be looking in the right spot.

Any clues?? 

Thanks!

hello

have you cleared your metadata2 and fxo folders? maybe run a slow repair?

also. doubt it will matter but change your shortcut to E:\DCS World\bin\

\bin-mt\ will be eventually deprecated.

I think its an issue with pimax play (PP) and Mbuccha's quadviews.

I cant get native PP quadviews to run past 30fps but cant get PP to run DCS reliably with Mbuccha quadviews which gives me around 80 to 90 fps.

Am working on this.

Thanks!
