Crash upon start

(1/2) > >>

JW1904:
Hello!

I've downloaded and installed the game. First time running, it warned me that I had to update my graphiccard drivers, to prevent problems ingame. Well, alright, most games still work with older driver-versions. Yet, the game instantly crashed.

I than updated the graphiccard driver, and tried restarting the game. It still crashes.

Windows 7 Ultimate x64
Intel E8500
Nvidia Geforce 9800GTx+
4Gb's of ram

cameni:
Did it send a crash report or was it a driver crash that didn't bring up the crash reporter?

It needs the newest drivers because it uses recent OpenGL functionality that was buggy in older drivers. Most games/engines use older hw features and driver code paths that are verified by the time, but don't fully utilize the hw capabilities.

JW1904:
Thats a fast reaction, thanks. No, it was a game-crash. And, I doubt that it send a crash-report, as I canceled when it prompted me to use Outlook to send it. The driver was doing fine and didn't crash.

cameni:
If it brings up our crash sender (with red text asking for the description), please let it send the report so we can analyze it.

Also, some sw is known to interfere with it: Bitdefender, MSI afterburner and several more. These usually result in a black screen, but it's possible there are ones that crash it.

JW1904:
Can't. It tell's me that it will start MS Outlook to send the report. I don't use it, its just installed there.

I zipped the files and uploaded them instead: http://www.mediafire.com/?fs7aagwha9mxf9a
