    Failed to initialize nvapi

    Started the game, screen went black and then goes back to desktop. Game icon is still on the taskbar. Resource manager says that the game is still using 25% CPU resources so it's doing "something". I checked the RenderCapLog and it says
    failed to initialize nvapi
    failed to unload nvapi
    3D Engine shutdown error: resources leaked!

    Windows 10 64 bit
    Radeon R9 390
    AMD Phenom II X6 1100T 3.3GHz
    16 GB memory

    The worst part (besides not starting) is that it rearranges all my desktop icons!

    Help?

    Hello kalicat1000, welcome to the forums. Sorry to hear that you're experiencing this issue. Did you get your game from one of our approved retail vendors? If so, you will want to submit a support ticket and have the technical team problem solve this issue with you.

    Strange,,, uninstalled and reinstalled. I did it twice before without luck. This last time it works. Didn't do anything different, but it's going now.

    Thanks!
    Jim
