Need some help getting Portal 2 working D:

Post by kylemcqueen75 »

Everyone knows that steam is having an awesome sale on Portal and Portal 2 for only a little over 8$ so i picked it up and downloaded everything but when i go to Portal 2 my entire PC crashes on start-up D:
Any Ideas to help?

My PC:
----------------
OS: Win7 64bit Ultimate
CPU: FX-4100 by AMD
GPU: Nvidia 550 TI 1GB
RAM: 8GB DDR3 1600mhz
HDD: 1TB SATA 6.0 gb/s

This is what i have tried:

Verify Files Threw Steam, Uninstall/Re-Install, -autoconfig launch command and Disabling my Anti-Virus. O and Fixing my Registry with Ccleaner.

Thanks for any help or ideas :)

Go to one of those "Can I run it?" websites and see if it says you can.
You could also try updating your drivers.
Please dont ask me how to script.
Instead, click this.
Btw; I'm an asshole to idiots.

The 550 Ti is rated to handle Crisis at Ultra Settings :P The fx-4100 is a 4 core running 3.6 Ghz out of the box and ready to OC. There is almost nothing i can't run with this thing :P I would think its drivers but i have went back to 3 different driver updates for my GPU and still the same result. I read a bit about people having the same issue, with better PCs than mine.

Thanks for the Ideas tho :)
