Fez not starting (Windows 7)

[D Sonla]

Hi!

Been looking around the forum for one hour but it seems there's no real solution.

So here's my problem :

Bought Fez recently and finally decided to try to play it.

Game launched but screen was flickering (told jokingly to my gf who has an epilectic brother that "Good thing your brother is not playing that game") so I exited it.

Browsed around a bit on the internet and people were recommending to allow the "Vsync" with ATI CCC ( I have a Radeon HD 5450) but I couldn't find the option they were talking about so I updated the driver and CCC.

And now Fez doesn't start at all. I looked in the Task Manager and a process is actually created but kills itself (or is killed) a few seconds later without displaying anything on the screen.

Bottom line : anyone has an idea?

Worst case scenario : I can try to go back to the "flickering configuration".

Cheers

Searched a bit more and still no progress for me.

What I've done so far :

- Change the resolution of my screen to 1280x720 : KO
- Put the option singlethreaded for the launch : KO
- Installed OpenAL : KO

Now I'm trying to reinstall DirectX and in the meantime searching for the "Debug Log.txt" but I have only the following files in the target directory : "LaunchOptions", "SaveSlot0" and "Settings".

Being a developer myself, quite bummed that 0 log are generated in a case like this.

Will keep this post updated for the other people who might run into the same problem.

Update : had to upgrade my drivers for my graphic card and it works. Turns out I thought I've upgraded it last time but only installed AMD Evolved Gaming.

Been playing the game and it's magnificent! :D
