Bought Rajas of India now game wont start

Hello,

as in title, I klick ck2 in the library and nothing happens. Tried restarting steam etc. nothing helps.

I take it you are saying it worked OK before this purchase. Please try a full clean re-install:

- move any valued save games elsewhere
- "delete local content" in Steam-CK2
- manually delete all files and folders left under Steam/CK2 AND Documents/Paradox/CK2
- re-install game in Steam, run a Steam Verify when done.

Well as a matter of fact I did a recent system reinstall and only installed ck2 but didn't try to run it before. Do I need something else in order to run it?

Please go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\crusader kings ii\DX\ and run dxsetup.exe

If that doesn't help, please try installing:

First: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=8328

Then: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35

(If that doesn't do anything then http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8109 )

Then: visit the Windows Update site and allow it to apply all .NET updates/patches it wants to, for all .NET versions.

There is no steam file in \Program Files (x86)

That's the default location, but perhaps you have installed Steam elsewhere.
