Im sure there is a fix for this but havent been able to find anything. I start it up, it almost gets to character select screen then goes black and crashes. What can i do to fix this issue?

what resolution are you running it in?

and as far as i know, lcds dont limit lower resolutions, only higher beyond the range of the monitors capacity, so you should be able to try, to see if thats the problem.

also, try windowed mode with a lower resolution....

I play in Win7 with no issues as do many folks. So, I doubt that is the problem. gl

also it'll be helpful to know your system specs

but i'd also make sure your running latest graphics driver

I'm running win7 64bit on a 23" 1920*1080 no issues
