It may help if you post:-

a) your CoD video settings

b) if you have installed a Beta patch and, if so, which release.

c) wether 'Aero' is enabled or disabled.

d) your screen resolution

e) if running in full screen with the latest patch your AA and Nvidea settings.

With the correct set up and all files intact you should have a largely playable and enjoyable experience.

Try clearing the 'cache' and 'shaders' folder by deleting everything in them then re-launch

I just checked my Config file and, wether it makes any difference, my render line is D3D10_0 and currently have many of the video options High but grass, shadows, roads, trees, - Off.

I am running with the latest May4th beta release. I hope you guys can sort it rather than give up.
I can't help but notice that everyone posting in this thread has a GTX560... hmm. At least one of us has a functional install.

I should note that my post above is no longer completely relevant, in that I did a Steam "verify integrity of game" check, and it added the D3D10 line to my conf.ini. Crashes continued.

A) I have tried various combinations but now have everything set on "low" with trees, grass, shadows, SSAO, and anti-epilapsy off.

B) I have tried stock (14101) and four different beta patches. experienced best stability with latest May 4 patch but still crashes after a few minutes (better than a few seconds as before but still unacceptable).

C) Have tried it with Aero enabled, and with Aero disabled. Experienced instability in both cases.

D) 1920x1200

E) Runnign full screen, 2xAA in game, Nvidia settings left at default.

I always get a fleeting error message when the sim crashes, "Display driver has encountered a problem and shut down. Display driver has recovered." So something else I tried was switching from 270.61 drivers to 266.66. No effect.

Thanks for your replies, SEE. I must say I have come to agree with Skymood's assessment. I have started the sim, loaded a quick mission, flown for a few seconds or maybe minutes, crashed, changed some setting, then repeated countless times over the past few days. I am thinking I will simply wait for the next official patch and hope for the best.
