Having trouble trying to start a new game

[Chef]

I can launch the game without any problem but when I try to start a new game, I get a Stardew Valley has stopped working error. Can't seem to find anything that will fix my problem.
Heres the error log:

Do other saves work, or have you never made a save?

I`ve never made a save on this computer, on my laptop that is now broken I have a save I used to play on. My laptop never had this issue.

Try moving that save to the computer, and see if it can load.

How do I do that if my laptop doesn`t even turn on?

Well then, generic fixes it is. (Be sure to test the game between each step):

1. Verify the cache.
   
2. Plug in headphones.
   
3. Ensure Steam is not running in compatibility mode.
   
4. Delete startup_preferences.
   
5. Restart your computer.
   
6. Delete %appdata%/Stardew Valley. It is a hidden file, so search for it directly through windows search. (Backup your saves, beforehand)
   
7. Disable Antivirus
   
8. Run as administrator
   
9. Reinstall the game.
   
10. Reinstall XNA.
    
11. Reinstall directx9.
    
12. Update graphics drivers and sound card drivers.

If all of these don't work, post your error log from %appdata%/Stardew Valley/Errorlogs, it will help me to pinpoint the problem.

Try running the game/Steam in admin mode.
