Won't launch
I got this very strange problem with XCOM EU.

When ever i try to launch the game i get the standard preparing to launch message and then windows ask me if i want to allow the program to change my computer settings, nothing out of the ordinary. But after that nothing happens, i can see that my status is ingame for 1-2 sec before it disappears.

It just wont launch and i dont even get a error message.

My pc specs are:
Windows 7 64 bit
AMD Phenom II 1100T Processor 3.3 GHz
GeForce GTX 560 Ti
8GB DDR3 RAM (Corsair)

The really strange thing is that i was actually able to play the game until yesterday.

if any one could think of a solution or perhaps have had a similar problem and solved it could help me, i would be very gratefull.

FOUND A FIX :)
1 Download this DDL from http://www.dlldump.com/download-dll-files_new.php/dllfiles/F/faultrep.dll/5.1.2600.2180/download.html
2 put the ddl just downloaded in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\XCom-Enemy-Unknown\Binaries\Win32 or the directory where there is your xcom.exe
3 Start the game and play!

Hope this will fix for all of you because this fixed mine :) there was a problem with a missing ddl (faultrep.ddl) that steam didn't find!

Well there's your problem. Win XP isn't supported by xcom. That dll may help.

I've had this issue with several games I've dl'd through steam (they basically won't open/instantly close before opening with no error message) and the solution I've found is as follows :

1. Find the .exe to run the game from in the games files (do not run it from stea library), for example my XCOM is in :

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\XCom-Enemy-Unknown\Binaries\Win32

2. Now run that .exe as an admin, you will now get an error message when it fails to open, useually this is a "blah blah blah.dll" is missing (for me with xcom it was XAPOFX1_5.dll).

2. Now find somewhere to download this .dll and repeat the above steps, either the game will start OR you may get a second error with a different .dll missing (I had this with borderlands 2, I had to download the second .dll to)


Just to add I'm using windows 7, this is the only fix i've found for this issue and is pretty much my go to process when a steam game doesn't open like this.

Hope it helps some of the people having issues, I know I was quite frustrated until I was able to pinpoint the issue to fix it.

I had issues with XCom not loading when hitting the play button in Windows 8. After setting Steam to run as Admin and the XCom executable to run with Windows 7 compatibility with admin privileges, the game now functions. Something to do with not being able to access DLLs.

I can confirm this faultrep.dll thing fixes my problem. Thanks a million

The game is not made for XP and it is not supported.

You can try to make it run but then there is no guaranttee that it will continue to run even if getting it to run.

To play single player you do not have to be logged into Steam, you can play it with Steam off-line but every now and then you will have to log in to Steam when it gives you a message -about every week or so.

But then I do not know, since I have not tried it on my XP computer.

Anything else and usually there is a cause from dirt and dust in the fans in the computer and grahpics card, to any thing else like programs in the BIOS, updating BIOS, to video drivers and other things usually in the computer.

Defragging the harddrive, to checking the harddrive, to anything and everything in a computer.

It works on my computer all the time.

Oh, and I use version 306.23 drivers from Nvidia because other drivers crash the game for no reason.

If not starting after the opening movies perhaps you should start it up in a "window" by putting "-windowed" without the quotes in your game in Steam getting up Properties after clicking on Library to get up the game and right clicking on it, and getting up the General Tab and adding "-windowed" in the Launch Options in Steam.

Otherwise you can check files there and all of that.

For those playing under XP and using this fix - http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2964408 - I've just had this same problem today and found that I had to redo the hex edits from kernel32 to zernel32 in the .exe and .com files. The game crashed my system yesterday (not sure why, first instability I've seen in 30+ hours, but it was when loading a game with a muton under mind control) and it appears to have refreshed its core files after that. Redoing the hex edits made it run again.

I have tried everything, from updating drivers to windowed...I played many hours on a seperate computer and recently upgraded to a comp with windows 8. Windows 8 seems to be the reason why i just cant get it to start. I click on the icon and run has adminstrator and my steam says im running it for about 5 seconds before nothing...Very frustrated to say the least. Ive scoured steam,2k, and firaxis forums for help and have done everything like i said. Even all the dll files. nothing has helped.
