I installed the beta driver, but the problem remains. So the problem unfortunately is not resolved.

Please let me know further updates

Thanks

Just a quick note, i tried to install the driver using the classic update procedure, but Windows said me that the best driver was already installed.

So I used another procedure and now I post it, could be useful for someone:

1) created a recovery point to rollback just in case

2) right click on computer

3) device manager

4) selected the video card

5) rick click--->properties-->update driver-->

Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"

6) Click "Have Disk" button

7) Select the directory with the correct drivers and then select INF file

Hello Amy

if you wanna reproduce this issue:

1) install dcs world 1.5.4 (latest version) on a PC with GPU 5500

2) launch it

3) select instant flight on the right panel, then aircraft su-25--->free flight

4) When it loads, press "Q" to launch flares, the application will crash

While here you can find a thread on DCS World community about the same issue

Thank you for your inputs.

As mentioned on the other thread we were able to replicate some issues with DCS World. So, I soon as I have more information in regard to the driver release, I will let you know. Just bear in mind that I do not have an estimate time for the release of this driver.

Regards,

Amy.
