Issues And Fixes

Game won't launch on AMD graphics cards, still shows up in task manager

This issue is due to later versions of the Catalyst Control Center drivers for AMD cards. To fix this, roll back CCC to 12.6. You can download previous drivers from http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/previous/Pages/radeonaiw_vista64.aspx
