I had the disk version of "Divinity 2 Dragon Knight Saga" running with my PC, so I know it worked. Somehow I managed to loose my disks and decided to use opportunity of the sale and buy it again as "Divinity 2: Developer's Cut". Unfortunately this does not run at all.

My PC runs Windows 7 64 Bit, I uninstalled the old disk version and then installed the GOG version.

When starting the game I get the two logo screens, then that icon in the lower right corner and then the game just ends. There is no option window before start.

I have tried some solutions I found here (from 2010 or so), including:
- set the whole game folder and files to full access for all users
- run game as Administrator
- check firewall settings (Kaspersky, program is set to "trustworthy" there)
- set windows compytibility mode to "Windows XP"

Does anybody have an idea, what to try next?

That was exactly solving my problem!

Updated to the last PhysX-driver and set to CPU - game running fine now.

So something must be different between the disk version and the GOG version... oh well, but now I can play it again :)
Thank you very much!

You're welcome. Yes, maybe something is different between both versions, or you've got a newer driver version now. I'm not sure if it works with one of the older ones, but with this fix it doesn't really matter.

FYI

I have the same problem (game crash after rotation logo bottom right corner).

I have the latest version of PhysX; setting it to CPU had no effect.


(I don't intend to troubleshoot this further)
