I was having a lot of crashes with the 'display driver has stopped responding but has recovered' message and I must have spent hours trying suggested fixes, older driver sets, lower settings, you name it.

What has worked for me is changing My config .ini in the 1C softclub folder. Under the [window] section the Render line was 'D3D10_0'. I have changed this to 'D3D10_1'. There is a thread somewhere that had the suggestion to change this setting but it looks like it works for some and not for others.

It's quick to try and makes no difference to either performance or graphics quality but I haven't had a driver crash since.

I don't find the Thread... but i've had stutters,too while dogfighting with multiple contacts.
I tried the solution to start Cliffs of Dover with the launcher.exe in the steam Il2 folder and it works much better, more FPS and only sometimes some stutters occurs, but not as often as before.
Give it a try ;)

Have the game.. the only thing that doesn't meet the listed specs is the fact that I have DDR2 and not DDR3 ram.

I can fly some quick and single missions, while other missions freeze either during loadup, or as it's reached the 100% mark on the loading bar.

I've also tried to make some static environments with one Bf109 marked as player aircraft so that I can push pause when I'm close and use the external view as a camera to check out what I've built, but none of the missions I've created have past the 100% mark. These "missions" I've created only have a half dozen static vehicles and one "player aircraft" Bf109.

The last update I have is the October 17th update. (1.05)

Yup Cashes or freezes after 20-to 30 mins everytime ....

Less frequent with last Beta.

Same here,

After 20 to 30 minuts, baf, launcher doesn't respond anymore. Pretty frustrating...
