Re: [PC] Unable To Launch Dead Space (2008)

I had the same problem, it just wouldn't launch no matter what. Funnily, I finally got EA to get the Windows Troubleshooter to fix it which is the first time I see that program do anything useful and it actually launches it. It set the parameters to Windows Vista Pack 2 and the minimum resolution (800x620 or something similar). Don't bother with Administrator launch, trying to get the game to launch windowed thru the EA app or in it's games folder, for me that did nothing. Try to launch it thru EA, get the Windows Troubleshooter in and follow its steps.

    @hrpavelx Thanks for this. Did you happen to change any of the install files so that it didn't launch in fullscreen mode or just the troubleshooter steps?
