There are no crash reports, I open the game, it runs for a few minutes. With the help of some of the online forms, we where able to get it to play the intro.

Past the intro once it asks me to press any key to move forward.

I do so, and then very shortly after that it crashes while it is trying to load the next screen.

The amount of forms and things I have attempted to try to get this game to work is ridiculous.

Please help. There is no reason my computer I just built should be having this many issues but my boyfriends computer which is 10 years old runs the game just fine.

  • Hey, @Badpickles101 make sure that all drivers for windows are up to date. 

     

    You can also try to do a clean boot to see if there any programs messing with Star Wars: Squadrons and turn off any overlay programs for example Discord or Nvidia experience.

     

    Worth to reinstall the GPU drivers for your PC.

     

    Can you add a Dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you have. 

     

    Let me know if this works or not for you. 🙂
