Just bought it and i am having a hell of a time getting it to run....


This is what happens when a developer is told the tools necessary to run their game will be ready by launch time, and they aren't....

Ouch, sorry man. That is why I don't like to game on a PC, I used to play them all the time, no great games (myth, Doom, Quake) :D Haven't seen you in awhile I thought you were hooked on it.

Nope, I was fighting to get the damn thing working....


I have found a work around, and I am just about to fight steinmann in the medical pavillion. That place is just damn freaky.

The game begions to launch, then i get the error "bioshock.exe has stopped working", and that is it. I have scoured 2kgames' and steam's forums for fixes, and have found things that work once (reinstall steam and move the steamapps folder out and then back in after the install, reinstall the c++ runtime) but nothign works long term., the game runs, then doesnt work the next time i launch it,a nd i have to start the whole thing over.


Not to mention the game sound stutters BAD with asll the bells and whistles turned on.

But i will take the sound issues, the game is beutiful with the toys turned on.:)

Might be a card problem. The game has some steep requirements though.

I had read a review of the system i bought that said the cpu acts as a bottleneck on some games, which is a bit disappointing (especially for $3000....), but even though its a laptop, i can get a second nvidia card for it and set up SLI, its just amatter of time before i have the money for it. That should improve things :)
