Kane & Lynch: Dead Men won't run on Windows 10

[BenKatarn]

It seems like the engine is not working or something, the screen flashes white, the audio is fine though. Anyone?


EDIT: A QUICK FIX, RUN THE GAME WITH THE INTEGRATED GRAPHICS CARD.

For this OS there is no support, so you should try the compatibility mode for Vista, cause it's the last supported OS. Note, that the support is for real Vista not emulating Vista.
Some told about Games for Windows Live, they couldn't get to work, maybe you have the same problem. The Executable is in this Directory
\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Kane and Lynch Dead Men\XLiveRedist\
XLiveRedist01.02.0241.00.msi

Thank you! It's working now, the thing was that the Nvidia Experience program somehow deleted my old drivers, but it's working fine now!

Did it:
- Returned back to Windows 8.1
- Installed GFWL from msi file in game directory
- Started as administrator and in compability with Vista
- PROFIT

My issue is that it will only run on intigrated graphics. I have a 970m so it SHOULD run on high everything. So weird...

Could you explain how did you get this game running again on Windows 10? Thanks in advance.

[BenKatarn]

Simply install GFWL (it's in the game's folder in Program Files), update your drivers and you're good to go.

GFWL is running correctly, but when I start playing the game, the game runs at 1-2 fps (the game was running fine on Windows 8.1 btw), and I also have Nvidia drivers updated. Did you configure anything else?

[BenKatarn]

You're right, it's running like ♥♥♥♥, it was blinking before but now it's running @7 fps.

[BenKatarn]

A quick fix: Run it with your Intel/AMD integrated graphics card. I think Nvidia ♥♥♥♥♥♥ something up.

[Rags]

For now, I think this is the only solution. Thanks.

[BenKatarn]

New Nvidia drivers, will report back as soon as I get em installed.

(still runs like ♥♥♥♥)

So im on windows 10 to my game launches and I get the loading bar going to about half way and the screen stays the same but i can hear the sound progressing through the menus and if i hit enter the first mission will play but my screen will just stay black any ideas on how to resolve this? I did the gfwl from the game folder and ran in compatibility mode and still no luck.

[BenKatarn]

Update your drivers and run the game with the Integrated graphics card, there's no other known way of running the game yet.
