    So my PA dies instantly on launch, screen starts black, flashes white, returns to black and PA.exe has stopped.

    All my drivers up to date, please find my Dxdiag and PA log attached. Just bought the game so never got any further....

    Sorry that I didn't originally answer to you, topics where everyone post same stuff are annoying and hard to track. There is two things you can try:

    Try to run game without Steam overlay:
    Right click the game in your Library -> Select Properties -> On the General tab, uncheck the box next to Enable Steam Community In-Game

    Try to run non-Steam version:
    1 - If you didn't do that (I guess you did it already if you can post here) link your UberNet and Steam accounts:

    2 - Download launcher from here and install game with it:

    Its no problem, I assumed the thread was not the right place so i brought my issue out here :)

    I've tried without Steam Overlay, no luck

    Non steam version...winner!

    Yeah, one of them don't crash... o_O

    If seriously there is no real difference between those two versions, but there is number of issues that only present in Steam version. I'm not completely sure why, but last few version start to crash more often when running on Nvidia+Steam.

    If you upload this crash dump here I'll ask devs to check what's can be wrong here:
