Game doesn't run in DX10/11

[Val]

Hello everyone,

I've been trying to start a new game for more than a day now, but the game freezes when I select the difficulty if it's set on DX10 or DX11. If I set it on Enhanced Object Lightning DX9 or anything lower it will load just fine. The game just doesn't want to start in anything above DX9, tried lowering the sun quality like some on the forum said but it didn't help, even if I set everything to the absolute minimum on DX11 it will still not run. Anyone know any fix to this? Really wanted to play it again now that I got a new GPU.

My game is a retail copy, not on Steam, didn't know where to ask for help so I came here.

PC Specs:
AMD Phenom II x4 955 3.6 Ghz
HD 7850 1GB OC
8GB DDR2 800Mhz RAM

My PC is not the problem, it can easily handle any DX11 game, problem is from the game.

Anyone know any fix that could let me run it in DX11? I remember playing it just fine in DX11 on my GTS 450, not on max settings tho, that's why I upgraded my card, and now I can't play in DX11 at all...

I don't know where I saw it, but I did see a fix somewhere for this in a post a month or so ago. It's a known problem. Mine works in DX10 or 11, but it works better in DX 9. Sorry I can't remember where I saw the information on how to fix this.
