GRAW won't run

I did a fresh install of Windows this weekend, and now that I've reinstalled and patched up GRAW it refuses to run! When I click the .exe file, literally nothing happens. It just sits at desktop. Anyone have any advice?

I have all my video and audio drivers up to date.

After 2 reinstalls, and re-downloading the 1.10 patch it works! And I must say it runs MUCH better since reinstalling my OS.

Re: GRAW won't run

I think a lot of issues people have are with their systems not necessarily with the game. I may get flamed for that but a well maintained machine makes everything less problematic and an annual reformat and reinstall can do a system a lot of good IMO.

Glad its working for ya. Not sure why it took a couple reinstalls but carry on soldier!

I agree with that 100% based on my experience. I make it a point to back up all my important files (including save games) and reformat every 6 months or so. It often makes a big difference in the performance of my games since it gets rid of all the unnecessary garbage on the drive, memory processes, etc that you never use anymore.
