Dawg35 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) I recently had an issue that required me to reinstall Windows 10 pro 64 bit. I took the opportunity to upgrade my SSD as well. I did a complete new, clean install of Win10 Pro, graphics drivers, Oculus Rift drivers and reinstalled IL-2 via Steam. I downloaded the latest AMD drivers for my R9 390X GPU. That would be the 2020 Adrenalin drivers. When I installed this I realized I had not been running the latest/greatest prior to starting this process, I had still been using older "Crimson" drivers. Anyway.... after this dance was complete I fire up IL-2 and I am able to fly for a while, then I get a crash. Oculus reports "no HDMI connection" so I think it's an Oculus problem. I check all of my connections, reload Oculus drivers etc. After a reboot I try IL2 again, immediately get this "no HDMI connection" crash again. Do more checking of connections, rearrange USB connections, pul graphics card and reseat it etc. and after rebooting I decide to try "Elite Dangerous" in VR. Works fine, I spend and hour or so in "Elite Dangerous" and go to bed. Next day I fire up IL2. Same crash. Reboot etc. Try to launch IL2 non-VR. Same crash. Then I notice a pop up: "0x887a0005 dxgi_error_device_removed" After more Google searches etc. I eventually uninstall all of my graphics drivers and download an older (2017) Crimson driver and install it. Everything works fine, no more crash, no more report of missing HDMI connection etc. Edited January 5, 2020 by Dawg35 clarification
