Launcher.exe closing after 5 seconds, no error message

Tried my luck with integrity too (ages ago and again now), no joy. Trying going back to 260 drivers right now (only step I hadn't properly tried, if to think of it), will tell how it goes (if it goes at all, that is).

...nope, nothing.

The beta 270 drivers do not do the trick either.

With the amount of pilots grounded right now, I think Hitler's enjoying a drink with the King in Buckingham already. Meanwhile, trying another reinstall while running Steam as admin to see if it does the trick this time around. I think I'm entering pre-CoD depression again... Back then, it was still CoD

had the same issue and this is how i fixed it. delete the il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover folder in 1C SoftClub folder located in documents. I'm not sure that this will help all of you but for me it did.

Thanks for the tip, but unfortunately didn't do much here... This is a bit sad, and apparently there's been no apparent solution in some cases.

GT120? I suspect that is a weak,unsupported graphics card.Possibly that is the problem in your case Lucas.

Well if all else failed I'd be doing a Windows reinstall as well but I can understand some people not wanting to do that! I've had similar problems with other games (not CoD, thankfully) which were only solved by a fresh install unfortunately. Probably due to lack of expertise...

Pretty acquainted with the possibility, Uther. Not touching the compatibility field, it has 2GB and runs quite a few games with heavy graphics (such as Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway) smoothly, with fairly good settings. It came with the computer, and it'd be really crappy if the card ends up being the issue, since I'm trying to save some money for various purposes (namely a Telecaster guitar, a proper amplifier for it, and if any is spared, pairs of Converse or Vans shoes). It's kept me from buying a decent set of controls and I'm afraid that, for the time being, it might just keep me from buying a new card too.

I'm still a bit dodgy regarding the lack of any screen, sound or message after the crash, if it was the card there should, in theory, be some sign of it, no?

Defiantly get the telecaster before a new graphics card - then you won't care so much if the game won't run cause you'll have a nice tele to play .

That's so far the highest rated option. I wouldn't mind CoD running though, but well... A Tele's a Tele.
