Thread: Crashes when I try to open it

    Default Crashes when I try to open it

    Hey guys, I downloaded the game over night and when I woke up to try it it crashed as I tried to open it. The screen went to black as if it was going to load a video then it just crashed. I restarted steam, it crashed, I restarted my computer and it still crashed. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Please don't tell me I have to redownload it

    do you have the new NVIDIA driver? i heard from the CA announcement (posted at hte top of hte main forum) that if you downloaded the new updated driver posted yesterday-ish by NVIDIA, it could cause problems. If so, you need to back-date your driver so you go to the previous driver. Otherwise, you might need to try and redownload...

    I rolled back my drivers, but it's still crashing when I try to open it. I really don't want to have to download it again. I just wanted to play when I got up.

    if you have a previous version of Steam account, the game will not work. Uninstall any previous Steam account and then re start the install of game i found that this worked for me as so far i am still on Steams downloading site.....but managed to get the game installing!!

    EDIT: just noticed first post on this forum, that should probably do the trick!
