When the game is launched, it crashes before it reaches the title screen.
I'm using a very adequate computer for this game, except the fact that I'm running Windows 8, which is most likely the cause of the problem. So frustrating. I've tried multiple compatability modes to no avail. I've tried other suggestions from these discussions, such as running the game as an administrator, but nothing makes a difference.
I've tried running in 8-bit colors, bit, Vista compatability, Windows 7 compatability, nothing. Any help? Showing 16 - 30 of 44 comments. The "run Steam as administrator" solution seems to work for me. Fingers crossed! Taktloss View Profile View Posts. I have a fix ;. Select the "game. Now apply and close the settings.
Start over Steam and Play ;. I have tried every single advice listed here and in the other shorter conversation. My antivirus is Karpersky and I run Windows 7. I also tried running in compatibility modus with XP, with no results.
Can anybody help me? Originally posted by FatBoySlim :. Omaboy View Profile View Posts. Found the link above and tried it. The game at least starts now, though its windowed and x I didnt have to apply admin rights or anything else. Brecor View Profile View Posts. Okay, I think I finally got a fix to the game crashing just before the Main Menu.
