Kuky Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Did you change resolution in game to match new monitor resolution?

SUBS17 Posted November 23, 2012 Author Posted November 23, 2012 It keeps coming up with that error everytime I try to run DCS World even after reinstalling DCS. DCS A-10C still works though. [sIGPIC] [/sIGPIC]

Kuky Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 How the hell can changing the monitor make a game crash?

Lange_666 Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324103 Wrong error code in the above link (Not your fault Wolf Rider, the topic starter made a little error in his post). It's 0xc000007b, not 0x0000007b which gives a different error: The application was unable to install correctly (0xc000007b). One of the solutions refers to a bad image error on the installation file so maybe the installer is corrupt (found this for another program, not DCS), another points to the .NET Framework etc... In general i found that it mostly says that something needs to be repaired so a corrupt file ma be the culprit here. Win11 Pro 64-bit, Ryzen 5800X3D, Corsair H115i, Gigabyte X570S UD, EVGA 3080Ti XC3 Ultra 12GB, 64 GB DDR4 G.Skill 3600.

Personal Wish List: A6 Intruder, Vietnam theater, decent ATC module, better VR performance!
SUBS17 Posted November 25, 2012 Author Posted November 25, 2012 I rolled back and reinstalled DCS World fixed the problem I suspect it was a bug or virus in my OS.:doh: [sIGPIC] [/sIGPIC]
