    I have recently re-installed PA for the launch, only for intense disappointment. The darn game won't even start up! I have no clue why this is happening. I am running windows 7. I cannot provide system specs atm.

    Hello,

    Do you have the latest DirectX and Visual C++ installed? If not, here are the links:

    DirectX June 2010: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8109

    Visual C++ 2012: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30679

    I think this is a problem with outdated drivers, but to confirm, please report back with your Dxdiag when you can.

    Updating your drivers usually sends me to a site where I spend money. This is free, right?

    Yes, this is free because this is the actual AMD website.
