hi,

running win 7 64 bit
gtx 760

Purchased and downloaded from Steam.
App tries to start and then stops. Sometimes error message telling me it has stopped, sometimes nothing.
File attached.
I wonder if it is because I have 2 displays ?
Tried deleting and reinstalling.

Thanks,
Barry

Hi, do you happen to have installed Logitech QuickCam? If you do, turn it off or update it to the latest version.
Also similar problem was reported with some versions of Razer Synapse.

Also you can try to set launch options in Factorio properties in Steam to "--force-opengl"

Hi,
Thankyou very much. Updated the logitech software even though not my version and factorio works. :D
