i bought the game through steam and the game dosnt work at all i tried lots of times to get in the game through my steam but the Pa.exe stops everytime please check this problem and fix it
Most likely it's problem on your side, but if you provide your system information I'll check what might cause it. Can you please check my signature, then create and upload your DxDiag.txt on forum?
Hi, I am having the same problem too. I have attached my DXDiag file. I have updated my graphics card and changed the graphic settings on the game to the lowest possible but it still crashes when I try to start a match. the game doesn't get past the "generating planets" screen
You have outdated graphics drivers: Code: Card name: Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000 Driver Date/Size: 2/21/2013 21:50:26, 12615680 bytes To update drivers download and install "win64_153314.exe" from Intel website: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=23639
Your issues with game caused by 32-bit OS memory limitations: Code: Operating System: Windows 7 Professional 32-bit (6.1, Build 7601) Service Pack 1 (7601.win7sp1_gdr.130828-1532) Memory: 4096MB RAM Available OS Memory: 3584MB RAM Please check this link for proper explanation of problem and known workaround: http://steamcommunity.com/app/233250/discussions/2/648816742979172000/
I've tried this and I tried once more. When I try to install the exe I get an error Saying: The driver being installed is not validated for this computer. Please obtain the appropriate driver from the computer manufacturer. Setup will exit. It's a Toshiba but I have failed to find an update to fix this issue.
I've got the same graphics card (Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000), but I'm unable to upgrade to the newer driver. I get told "The driver being installed is not validated for this computer. Please obtain the appropriate driver from the computer manufacturer." Any further advice for me?
You need to download ZIP version of driver and manually install it though device manager. Here is explained how you can do that. http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-033916.htm Or you can check this text how-to by @maxpowerz https://forums.uberent.com/threads/newest-patch-crashes-on-system-loading.56731/#post-877701
I'm now looking into purchasing Windows 8.1 64bit. In your experience does PA work on Windows 8? as I'm sure you can understand that I don't want to spend £££ on upgrading my OS only to have the same issues
You don't have to buy new OS license to get 64-bit. Your Windows 7 license will work for both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of this system. So if you get proper installation media for Windows 7 64-bit you can just install it and activate with license key you already have. In case you still want to upgrade - yes, PA work fine on Windows 8/8.1.

Okay, I updated the drivers and are still having the same problem. If you have any more ideas that would be great. Thanks.
Well, something went wrong, unless you posted the wrong dxdiag: Code: Driver Date/Size: 1/15/2013 23:30:42, 12615680 bytes
Hey, When I follow that link to the intel site, it says the driver is not validated for my pc (Samsung) and the Samsung site says my drivers are up to date. Any advice?
Get ZIP version of driver ("win64_153314.zip") then install it using this how-to: http://steamcommunity.com/app/233250/discussions/2/558749190911446231/
