Just reinstalled on the same Windows 10 machine I've played ~500 hours of GalCiv3 on. Now all I get is a full screen black screen for roughly 5 seconds, then crash. I've scrubbed post after post looking for solutions and nothing changes. Yes, I am running the latest AMD drivers, yes Windows is up to date, yes anti-virus is "off", and yes Folder Permission Security is off. Dump of debug is below. Any help is greatly appreciated.
