Built a new PC. Everything that ran on my old PC runs fine except ONE game.
The game is 'The Cave' by Double Fine.
99% of the time, the 2 logo screens play but as soon as "Loading" appears on the screen, the game either freezes until it crashes or just crashes.
Every once in a while, when I'm trying different things to make it work, it'll load w/out crashing. If I save and exit, then try to relaunch it'll crash.
I feel like I've tried everything; Disabling cloud save/load. Obviously, verifying file integrity. Uninstalling and reinstalling. Reinstalling on a different HD. Disabling resizable bar. Disabling background apps. Changing screen resolution to what my old system ran and editing the screen.dat file to emulate my old PC. Changing Windows Sound output/input to bypass VoiceMeeter. Nothing consistently works. The last time it ran, I had just shutdown Discord. But relaunch w/no changes resulted in crash.
It's generating a .dmp file every time it crashes but I don't have the knowledge needed to make heads or tails of it (even with the app that deciphers it).
First, should I share a .dmp file? Does it contain any info I shouldn't share w/others?
Second, anyone think they can figure out what's going on from the .dmp file?
