I have a GTX480. It runs the game with no issues. I don't have a config file for you, but i can't see it helping anyway. All my settings are default settings through the GUI.

You should not need to do this at all, complete overkill.

Sure a fresh install may be a good thing to do, but not because you change your gfx card.

I have 2 gtx480's and ctd on numerous occasions. I crash only when I'm in the menu's which is kind of weird! What happens is because I just got it yesterday. I'm still messing with my controls and have to exit out to the menu and when trying to make a change it ctd at times. Not one ctd during game play. My nvida cp is set to default for the game also, except for my global settings. Not sure if it's an sli issue or what. The game runs smooth at 2560/1600 every things medium except textures{high}. So far I pretty happy considering the troubles the first release{Europe} went through for our delayed usa launch.

I tried uninstalling and re-installing my drivers, game, and deleting the shaders cache and the game still crashes after I start the Launcher.exe. Sometimes I get a black screen and sometimes I get the windows pop-up 'this program has stopped working'

This is the only game I've had any issues with.

I'm running Windows Vista, x64 bit
i7 processor
6GB Ram
and I recently put in a GTX480 and my old sound card:
GTX480
Sound Blaster Xfi

I was running 2 GTS 250s in SLI

by chance where did you install the game? if C:\program files (x86) then try moving it some where out side that folder and install like this, C:\Ubisoft\il2 cliffs of dover\ make sure you run as administrator. right click the icon click on properties and advanced run as administrator.

I have tried both of these things, but the game is still crashing when I try to start the launch.exe

I've also tried switching from full screen to windowed and the game still crashes.

I've heard Steam{if that's where you got it} changes the game properties on it's own. It changes the compatibility to win xp SP3 on it's own{not always} on a win 7 machine. I am assuming you have win 7. I don't know if this happened but it's worth a check anyways.

What are your render settings in your config file? Should be Render D3D10.

Try re-installing the game. You can backup first in steam, delete the local content, manually delete the 1C folder in My Docs and then re-install.

480 runs the game pretty well - they are powerful cards, just very hot!
