Thanks! But I solved the problem some time ago by buying a low cost off board video card and the game is fine, not that the GT 710 can't be done anymore I believe it's a matter of compatibility, After all I have the gt 730 and the game is running smoothly .

Stardew valley has always worked on this computer at 60 FPS fixed, I've always played by parallel means, Several indie games work very well on this machine, Project zomboid , Terraria , Rimworld , Don't Starve may not be the best but it's still a broth, I've tried reinstall the video driver, reinstalled C++ and so far without success.

Can you start the game not via Steam, but the .exe game file?

Can you update your graphic driver? Maybe reinstalling your graphic driver?

try using the 32bit version from the Beta tab. I know your PC is 64bit but it is quiet old, so it may not be able to deal with the game in 34bit

There was a post a few days ago where someone was getting a similar error on a PC with similar specs, and they ended up refunding because no solution was found. It seems the minimum system requirements listed on the store page may no longer be accurate since the game was upgraded to 64-bit about a month ago. Even people with much higher specs (which should have no problem running the game) have been experiencing performance issues or even been unable to launch the game since the 64-bit update. The dev has acknowledged the issue and is trying to figure it out and fix it.

As others have suggested, I would recommend trying to run the compatibility version of the game. If that version doesn't work either, it might be best to refund the game while you can.

Well actually as you say it's looking like the poor thing isn't actually my computer but the game, the specs actually look very old, however within all the games I currently have stardew valley is the lightest among all that I currently play, I believe that as it is a new version, I will wait for the developer to solve this problem. Unfortunately, in this current crisis, it is difficult to assemble a new computer in Brazil due to the high dollar, thanks for the comments, I will try to solve this problem at dawn if I find it. any solution comeback here to give some feedback, sorry for my bad ingles i am using google translator.

I had the same problem and tried a lot of different solutions, but what worked for me was uninstalling and reinstalling my display adapter (driver? idk)j in device manager. I hope this works for you too

A 100% fix that worked for me is very easy. Just go to the page https://fdossena.com/?p=mesa/index.frag and download mesa for windows than extract it and put the file "opengl32" in game's files. And this should work. Good luck!
