Game crashes on Launch (Win 7)

[Kilonum]

After today's update my game now shows nothing but a black screen and crashes after I click start. This is with all DLC up to but not including Charlemagne and with no mods enabled.

One of my teammates on multiplayer had the same issue. Not sure how to resolve. We're uninstalling and reinstalling now.

Same here I am running Win 7 Enterprise 64. And Crusaders Kings is crashing when I am using the Charlemagne DLC

 

[SeizeVictus]

I reinstalled, didn't work. :l

Please post a DxDiag:

* Open your Start menu
* Type "dxdiag" in the search field (without quotes)
* Open the dxdiag program
* A window called "DirectX Diagnostic Tool" should pop up now
* At the bottom right-hand side, click on "Save all information"
* Save it to a place where you can find it easily, for example your desktop
* Open the file and copy and paste the text between [NOPARSE]

[/NOPARSE] tags

You can copy the line below and paste the text between the yellow tags

[COLOR="#FFD700"][NOPARSE][CODE][/NOPARSE][/COLOR]paste text here...[COLOR="#FFD700"][NOPARSE]

[/NOPARSE][/COLOR][/CODE]

Also, make sure you have no incompatible mods enabled (even small ones)

I ran once perfectly, then it keeps crashing at launch.

I ran once perfectly, then it keeps crashing at launch.

Attach a DXdiag for PI to help you.

Don't know if it will help you guys but delete or temp move your my documents paradox interactive folder and see if that works. It worked for a friend.

This fixed it, thanks.

Though for some reason the borderless window is now not centered :blink:

EDIT: and that latter problem was fixed by relaunching.
