Crashing to the desktop in 7 seconds

Okay… this is just weird.
I recently moved so I just set up my PC for some BMS fun.
Now… keep in mind… 6 days ago BMS ran PERFECTLY.
specs:

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 [Display adapter]
NVS NV Surround [Monitor] (61.3"vis, s/n 65795, April 2013)I have 3 screens running on Nvidia’s surround. I merged the monitors no problem. I was not getting any graphics acceleration and no surround on the monitors. I fixed this by going into properties of the BMS launcher and disabling full screen optimization. With that issue fixed the sim just crashes to the desktop like every 7 seconds no matter where you are. You can be in settings, the timer is up and boom. You can be in the cockpit in instant action, everything runs great… 7 seconds up - crash to desktop.
I uninstalled BMS completely.
I reinstall and patch up to update 5. Still having this issue. HELP PLEASE.
I tired deleting ds9sisplay.dsp. No go.
I made sure my monitors were all at 60 HZ refresh. No go.
i added the “allow” line in my bms config file for all refresh rates. No go.
I reverted the Windows 10 updates from May 25th. No go.
I tried my previous GTX 1070 drivers. No go.
I updated my GTX 1070 drivers. No go. -

I’m already doing the full screen optimization trick. What is this talk of an “extractor” to play the game windowed?

You can run in Windowed mode by simply adding the switch -window to the end of the Launcher .exe, like below:
“X:\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Launcher.exe” -window
Just left click on your desktop icon, go to Properties and in the Target box is where you add the switch.(-window will not be inside the quotes).
