CFS3 wont start

Hi All,

I went to start CFS3 and it gets to the first splash screen loads for about 30 seconds, a quick blip of the screen as if its going to the main game screen and then it drops out.

Checked the task manager CFS3 not running. I haven't installed any new software or added anything to my CFS3 install since last running it yesterday. I have tried running the config utility and deleting the various files in the application data folder, but still no joy.

Win7, i7-4700HQ 2.40ghz, 64bit, Nvidea card, 8gig RAM.

any thoughts much appreciated,

regards Rob.
 
All sorted,

after running the config tool again I had a quick look at the display settings and it had somehow set itself to a resolution the monitor would not support. changed it back to the normal resolution for my screen and CFS3 started up with no issue.

regards Rob.
 
hi Rob, do you set your configoverrides file to Read Only? Otherwise CFS3 seems to have a mind of its own (like Oliver says)!
