Im sorry that the text is highlighted in black, but I just copied it from my post in the Steam forums. Someone suggested to post my problem here because of the active community.
I installed the windows 10 upgrade on my PC, and to this point everything was fine. But then I wanted to play a round of CnC, and the game wont launch.
When I start it via Steam, you just see the starting screen, and after about 20seconds it vanishes with the icon in my icon bar. I also look via task manager if the program starts, but at no point it uses any CPU. It just wont launch.
When I start it via .exe (while Im logged in in steam), the game starts, goes to a black screen, and then sends me back to desktop with the message "FATAL ERROR: exception in exception handler". I also googled that:
My tries to fix this: I reinstalled a DirectX pack from June 2010 like it was recommended in this thread: http://answers.ea.co...er/td-p/4460184
I also reinstalled the game several times. But it wont work.
Then I made the following recognation: Kane's Wrath didnt work yesterday evening. But Tiberium wars did! Then I redownloaded both games today. And now the same error occurs for Tiberium Wars.
I just know what my biggest fault was: Installing this piece of sh*t what comes with the name "Windumb 10"! I just hope you guys have an idea how to get my game to work. My google skills reached their limit. And the reason I bought it on steam was, I wanted to play without big efforts.
For the people who will ask for my specs (I will post them if necessary): Command & Conquer 3 + Kanes Wrath worked fine till the upgrade to windows 10. I also updated my drivers for my graphics card and my Intel Chipset.
What I want to add:
-I use the Steam Version for both games.
-I get the error when I want to start the Game via .exe or via C&C Online Launcher. When I start it via Steam, it online shows the loading screen and then vanishes.
-I use the new Windows 10.
-My Error Log File:
