Dont start on new PC

Post by Anders_Nilsson »

HI !

Me and my kid have been playing FS17 some time now. But after upgraded the rig I cant start it anymore...
Anyone that might have a solution to it?

I press play in Steam, the screen goes black onen second then back to steam.

I have been trying to change various things in the game.xml based on tips online after serching google.
But no luck.
Attached my logfile.

Regards
Anders

It may be that something on the new system (like a driver) doesn't like FS17, because it's seven years old now. Older games can refuse to run on new hardware.

Does it work if you disable wi-fi?
If yes, this is a known issue and I doubt they will ever fix it.
