Hello,
I am having a problem with multiple games in my steam library in which when I launch the games, the games opens and then within a few seconds crashes to the desktop. They only way around this I have found is to run the games in compatibility mode for windows XP (service pack 3) and as an administrator in some cases. However there is at least one game (Insurgency) in which this does not work. Some of the games which I have experience the main problem with are;
Euro Truck Simulator 2 (which I did manage to fix by running it in OpenGL, it seems fine now when I run it with DirectX),
Grand Theft Auto V (which did the same thing but now all of a sudden as the error "Please run Grand Theft Auto V using PlayGTAV.exe." I don't understand this as I am booting the game from steam which then opens the Rockstar Social Club Launcher),
Insurgency as mentioned before (this just crashes straight to the desktop no matter what I do, if I sit in the menu, after a few seconds it crashes and the same for when I load a game.)
I also had the problem with Skyrim but i don't mind running that in compatibility mode as I can just put that down the the age of the game however the others which did run fine on my PC I cannot understand.
Some other games in which this happens are:
Rocket League
Mirror's Edge
Counter Strike Global Offensive (which i have got to work in compatibility mode as an administrator) But it did work fine before.
That's my problem. I cannot understand why this has happened as nothing dramatic has changed on my pc. The compatibility mode work around i have got to work does only work on a few games but I shouldn't have to do that when i know that the games run flawlessly on my PC. Like i said ETS2 seems to have fixed it self from running once in OpenGL but that's the only one that works as it did.
In case you where wondering my pc specs are:
i5 7400
GTX 750ti
1TB Western Digital HDD
Gigabyte H110M-S2H motherboard
16GB of HyperX Fury 2400mhz ram (2x8GB sticks)
Sorry for writing an essay but I just feel you would need as many details as possible. If you need to know anything else, please ask as a would like to get this resolved.
Thanks again
Harry B.
