I press play and nothing happens
I press play, and it says i am playing gta 5 for a few seconds then stops. The proccess starts but closes down for some reason! ( IT IS NOT CRASHING, BUT RATHER NOT STARTING UP)

I CAN CONFIRM FOR ME DISABLING MY VIDEO CARD AND USING MY MOTHERBOARDS ONBOARD GRAPHICS WORKED! ITS A PROBLEM WITH NVIDIA!!!

Here is an example of what I mean (Video Credit goes to Niykin): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qwe23C5ddp8&feature=autoshare

Thanks to Narny, these might help if your issue isn't related but you feel like posting your issue.

e-Install / Update Nvidia Drivers.
Restart Steam/PC Multiple times.
Set GTA V to run as admin.
Turn off Anti-Virus and Firewall.
Verify integrity of the cache.
Download rockstar social club exe that everyone says "WOW IT WORKED" until you get the (Code 2) error which is probably worse than it not launching at all. (Don't bother)
Re-installing Social Club.
Setting Social club to admin.
Moving social club into your GTA V directory.
Getting a friend to send you there PlayGTAV.exe or GTAV.exe because you are missing one.
Re-installing GTA V. (Don't bother)
Disabling my GPU and then launching the game. (However this is is a termporary fix for people with 2 GPU's / Laptops.
Disabling my GPU then launching the game via all GTA V's .exe's.
Windows user name new account.
Uninstalling Anti-Virus software
Disableing in-game overlay.
Installing windows updates.
Reinstalling DirectX and SP1.
Moving the Social Club folder to the driver your GTA root folder is located in.
