Hi, my game crash just after selecting what directx i want to use.
It happens even if i select directx 9 or 10/11.
Just a black screen and it returns to steam library.

I have already played it a year ago or so in the same laptop.
I have checked all, verify cache, uninstall game, delete folders in steamapps, delete folders in my game, reinstalled the game, updated nvidia and updated win 8.1
It's so annoying...
 
Same problem here.. googling gave a lot of threads about the same problem (with answers already used by Chiefcomander and myself, in vain alas) but I haven't found any definitive diagnosis on this issue anywhere.. so remembering my old days here at cfc I was hoping people here have any knowledge on what is causing the problem, and how to solve it.

I have played civ5 goty edition on the same setup before, now having bought brave new world everything has become unplayable as I can no longer advance beyond the directx select screen. :-(

Tnx in advance if anyone can offer some help with this..
 
I'm getting this as well: it's only happened since installing Beyond Earth and updating my Nvidia drivers.

Very odd.
