Same here. I STILL can not play the game because every savegame - does not care if user generated or autosave - does not load and loading a savegame crashes the game. So I will try to get a refund for this piece of crap and try to convince all my buddies to not buy this junk.

Holy Moly, I was able to start the game. Not only once but everytime. I was about to give up and in a final try I again did the following two things that I already did before but which didn't help at that time. So I am still kinda perplexed why they helped this time. Anyway, what I did was: Once again I deinstalled all my graphic drivers and deinstalled everything NVIDIA on my system. Then a reboot. After the reboot I installed the newest ATI Catalyst Driver 10.5 from http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst...windows-7-64bit . Reboot. After the reboot I installed the newest PhysX Software from http://www.nvidia.com/object/physx_9.10.0129.html . Reboot. The game now starts everytime I want to, although it takes a very long time to load. But i STILL can not play the game because every savegame - does not care if user generated or autosave - does not load and loading a savegame crashes the game. So I will try to get a refund for this piece of crap and try to convince all my buddies to not buy this junk.

The problem is definately NOT solved! This is the first game I bought that doesn't even effin start! APGame.exe starts and immediately crashes. I tried everything possible and everything that was mentioned in this thread but nothing helped. So I took a closer look at the event viewer and saw that apgame.exe tries to "do sth." with KERNELBASE.DLL and at that exact moment the game crashes.
