Random Crashes to desktop when switching screens

[ccecc85]

Hi all, somebody please help me...

I have recently installed KSP (v0.90.0.705 BETA) on my Lenovo Y70 Touch laptop running Windows 8. I modified it with the following:

MechJeb2 (v2.4.2.0)

KW Rocketry (v2.6)

B9 Aerospace (don't know the version)

Randomly, when switching between screens (VAB, Tracking Center, Recovering a Vessel and going back to Space Center, etc.) KSP just crashes and returns me to my Windows desktop.

My laptop details are as follows:

Lenovo Y70 Touch

Intel Core i7-4710HQ CPU @ 2.50GHz

16GB RAM

Windows 8.1 64-bit OS; x64-based processor

I have uploaded the crash logs to Dropbox. Can somebody take a look or let me know what more information you need to help me through this issue?

Your log says you're running out of addressable memory, probably all those B9 and KW textures, there's an addon called active texture management that can help reduce your RAM use

Chris, here's a link to Active Texture Management:

Use the aggressive one. Even if you get it running for a bit under the basic, there is a memory leak in KSP, and it will still eventually crash. Using aggressive will make the textures a little more blurry and indistinct, but you'll have a longer play session before you crash from lack of memory. Especially if you start installing other beautification mods or part packs.

Thanks guys. That seems to have fixed it, or at least made crashes mush less frequent. I haven't had a crash since installing ATM. Thanks for the quick replies!
