Hello here,

I just bought the game and I wanted to test it.

But everytime I try to launch it, I have a Windows error: "Deus Ex has encountered a problem", and a return on desktop.

After a few tests, it seems that the fullscreen was the problem. So I launched DX in safe, windowed mode, but after a few second I wasn't able to move in the menus.



I will provide all the informations needed to solve my problem.

Try Kentie's patched launcher, it worked for some people with a similar configuration.

To use it your system has to have the Visual C++ 2012 runtimes (x86) installed.

You find all further details here:

have you tried replacing the DeusEx.exe file in game directory with the DeusEXE launcher? If you have, run it and click Configure. Disable "Use DirectSound"
