took 7 months to playground games and nvidia to fix crash related to nvidia drivers on fh4
For now, i found nv-gpudmp and json files after every crash. Inside JSON:

I haven’t gotten this error in months and now is back from yeserday. Got it again just now! 
Maybe I was not clear, but I have not experienced the topic problem with my CPU overclock (and my GPU is undervolted with stock boost), or any of the drivers up to 531.68. I was just curious to learn what solution was, as it is not apparent from the preceding posts.
So. As mentioned in another topic, I have changed two files in the game root folder: nvngx_dlss.dll and nvngx_dlssg.dll
Downloaded and copied new versions.
Download links: DLSS DLL, DLSSG DLL
RTX drivers are 531.79
Spec: i9900/RTX3090/32GBRAM
Graphics settings: DX12+DLSS/ULTRA preset
Resolution: 4K
Now I complete a full bush trip flight without any issues and errors.
Need additional tests from others.

Do you a link to the ‘other’ topic

Not sure why you swapped DLSSG.DLL as it is only relevant to RTX4000 cards?
That file does indicate DLSSv3, and I think the 3000 series can only support DLSSv2.
The first one (without the g) defininitely is for all 3 and 4 series rtx cards and it gives much nicer aliasing than before … no placebo effect, I am using it with higher resolutions on a 32" HDTV since before SU12 and when the update reverted it back it was the first thing I noticed. rtx3060

It must somehow have something to do with the X-Box. Because they all have the same GPU and it is somehow tuned to it. Because since the X-Box came along, the problems started. And since we PC people all have different GPUs, there are some problems. You need to separate the X-Box from the PC version and differentiate between them. There’s probably no other way. Also in relation to the graphics in the sim in general.

Well I suppose that’s one way to kill off MSFS for PC because xbox is certainly where the profit is. There’s no way MS is going to have two separate development teams when they can manage well enough with just one

Flew with these dll’s last night and had no ctd. Tried my best to crash it, jumping in and out of vr, changing weather etc.
But as we know it may have just been a lucky flight, see how it goes tonight.
Thanks.

Well, it doesn’t have to be two development teams. I can only imagine that the console is somehow limited in its performance, especially the GPU. While PC people buy graphics cards up to 2000 €. And that’s why the whole thing is somehow throttled. And matched to the box for the future.
The consoles are limited in their performance but that doesn’t mean msfs is pegged to them. However when any new hardware comes out you should always expect some delay until it becomes fully supported. What MS certainly don’t want is the situation where you need a top 5% PC to run the sim properly which was almost the case before SU5, I know that I didn’t enjoy the mash potato clouds and 20fps that was all my mid range PC was capable of. And the only thing throttling those huge 4080/90 gpu’s is the huge MIMO demands on the rest of the system that pushes out the data … and as yet there’s not a cpu capable of bottlenecking them at 4k, for that you would at least need 8k, multi monitor or high end VR.

Had the same now with the last 2 Nvidia drivers.
Luckily it happens relatively seldom, at least for me only once every 20 flights on average.
But I also have a 4070, so I thought it might be due to the not yet optimized drivers for the new graphics card.
Hi
Minor issue, but is it possible to get rid of the nvidia confidential message?
Thanks
99% of it being this.
