Rule 3: No direct piracy links

Rule 4: Alternate video links are to be in a comment, below the first posted video.

I picked the game back up with this new update after not playing it for years. I've played for a few days now with relatively no issues, including late last night.

I tried to launch it from steam just now and it crashed my whole pc (bsod) right after it asks if I want to run the game with or without the launcher. (I run it without.)

An error pops up with a code saying it failed to launch and asks if I want to just exit the game or copy the code and search the web while closing.

Before I'm able to pick an option or write down the code, I get the blue screen.

Any help here would be much appreciated!

Right click on the game in Steam, select Properties and under the Installed Files tab select the option Verify integrity of game files.

See if that helps, it's a first step in troubleshooting games on Steam.

Sounds good! Will give that a shot when I get home.
