I missed the boat on the Arkham series when it first came out. With the sale, I was excited to finally give it a try. But I've spent about 2 hours troubleshooting the game now, trying to get it to run on a modern PC.

I re-installed, verified the files, ran it in compatibility mode, tried different setting combinations in the launches, re-downloaded PhysX and DirectX, downloaded files straight from Microsoft, and just about every other tip I could find online, but nothing did the trick. The moment I hit "Play" from the launcher, it crashes.

I see a bunch of people posting here about similar issues. Good luck to all of you! I hope you succeed where I failed.
