added RPT + dxdiag file
Tried to backup and reinstall game, same issue.
Found I had not much space left on my C drive, Removed some stuff but still crashes at the same point.
Tried the -nobenchmark and adding beta dev to the steam options. Still the same crash
From a process of elimination I've Worked out its my sound drivers(disabling devices in device manager, try and load, disable another device, dry and load etc). Asus Xonar DX. Updating and will report back when i have updated.
To confirm its definatly the Asus Xonar DG thats causing the problem, Updating to the latest Offical drivers hasn't sorted my issue.
Ill use on board for now.
edit: seems like it isnt. All my sound devices crash my game. regardless of driver version
Well at least its consistent. No audio devices and it runs. Any Audio device, even usb speaker crashes it.
