I'm at work atm so can't test anything but thought i'd post this now and hope for a reply before i get home. I did a pre-install on my wifes comp. I shared the install files over from my computor then installed the game. Game started up and she got to the char creation screen but the colors were all messed up and then the whole computor crashed. Did this twice in a row and then on the 3rd time the computor crashed right after i pressed play.
Uninstalled the game, made sure all the install files were deleted and then manually downloaded the game from the official site. Reinstalled the game. When i press play now the screen goes black and you can see her cursor doing the little processing thing. But the game never starts up. Just stays black, i was able to ctrl+alt+del and end task so the computor isn't frozen but the game can't get past that black screen.
I made sure her graphics card driver is up-to-date, actually updated it when we played the beta. Tried starting the game as an administrator. Didn't change anything. Not really sure what else to try atm. Someone did suggest windowed mode and i'll try that when i get home but has anyone experienced this or have suggestions? Also, her windows did install an update right before we started trying to play.
